Glass walls on the ensuite !

The blankets to cover sofas has always been a bit peculiar to me. It's a very British thing to do but I thought it was to cover ugly sofas - I am really curious what is under them in this instance.

I've always covered sofas in blankets in rental properties (or moved into rentals where someone had already done it) to prevent anybody from staining the couch and losing some deposit. I have rarely seen it done where somebody owns their place. 

Weird. I see it ALL the time. But then I think because it is such a British thing I really notice it. I am Scandinavian and could not imagine anyone doing that there as people tend to be quite house proud. I'd rather lose a bit of deposit and live comfortably, but I think people in this country overall are fine with the blanket aesthetic. If it doesn't bother you then that's all that matters.

Confused as to where this is located. Postcode takes me to Birkenhead but map takes me to a field in Leicestershire.

Picture 3 really sells it!

I feel like they've inflated the price of this one by £20k from what is reasonable for the area because they have a "trendy" diagonally painted wall and green metro tiles in the bathroom and kitchen. Knowing Bristol, it will sell soon .

I wondered why there were no outside shots. And then I saw it. It isn't a looker is it?

I don't quite understand whether it is a house or a flat

Conveniently located in close proximity to LIDL, Screwfix and home bargains

There's a reason they keep the garden photos until last. 

What is that behind the garden? And how do you get a car in the garage?

I didn't realise anyone still put cars in garages!  I would imagine it is either for a motor bike or a fancy shed. 

The building beyond is a commercial building, officers or a small factory, I'm not exactly sure. Goggle maps doesn't help identify it either.

By the looks of it it's an old telephone exchange/ where the operators worked. But isn't currently.

I think technically it's a bungalow. Though in reality it looks like a converted commercial building. Single story, all one level.
