Definitely trying way too hard - what on earth is a bath doing in the kitchen !

For mixing cake and bread mixes in... Or for soaking dishes overnight.

Despite the grottiness of the property. Bathroom looks very clean,

The local area looks pretty grim, but nice house if you like tube trains rattling past your head all day.

Not sure if I should be admitting this, but aside from the sterile looking overuse of brilliant white emulsion, I quite like that.

Not really if you look closely at the walls and floor

I hate the exterior though.  But my thoughts are £1M for a 2 bedroom house !!!!!!.

I bet the but under the railway arch is leasehold as well, I can't see how that is freehold.  And it's mostly a house with no windows to give a view.

True the price is extortionate, but it's London, I've seen £1 million London properties on this thread (and it's predecessors) which are IMO worse deals than this one.

The exterior design is definitely marmite, but I do like the slightly decaying industrial aesthetic they're going for here which I think works very well alongside the Victorian viaduct. In terms of size, it's bigger than most 2 bedroom properties I've seen and it does also have a study plus a store which could potentially be use as a small second study. In most properties you'd have to requisition a bedroom for this.

The listing does state it's leasehold.

I'd be interested in seeing the lease, as my experience of any railway arches or similar properties is that the railways insist on reserving unusually wide rights, which wouldn't really sit well with a residential long lease.

Actually from accounts of those who have visited inside ,  you don't hear the trains when inside at all. Apparently you would never know you were under a railway.
It must have some impressive  sound proofing built in.
Sitting outside is obviously a different matter. 
Personally I could see it working as a commercial or studio space, but not as a domestic space.
The kids bedroom obviously indicates the latter. Very young kids may not notice the environment but once they get older..?
