    A most odd set of photos - someone with a handle fetish?

    Or someone with aspirations of being a fine art photographer.

    I really don't understand those kind of photos for trying to sell a house. A close up of a door knob doesn't show me what I want to see!!!!! *rolls eyes*

    A real scary house here:

    https://espc.com/property/fleetbank-gatehouse-of-fleet-castle-douglas-dg7-2jx/36050195?sid=698067

    simultaneously too derelict to require a Home Report, yet looks like it's been occupied very recently.

    That's utterly bizarre. Wonder what the back story is?

    Can't work out if that coal fire is lit or just a picture? If it's real then someone must be living in it.

    I'd be a bit more concerned about the (recent, if you check Streetview) massive crack in the front wall tbh...

    That could just be the ancient render couldn't it ?

    With all the damp upstairs I'd be thinking a new roof for sure.

    Not so sure. The corner at the door doesn't look too good.

    If not still occupied then it was very recent - wooden furniture is polished/clear of dust.

    All upholstered furniture has been removed (except 2 dining chairs) and one bed remains.  I guess the carpets are included because the state of the floors would be consistent with that of the walls and ceilings.
