There was something about this place that felt familiar and reminded me of my grandmother’s house - then I saw it is only a mile or so from where she lives! Maybe it is a local interior design style. Perhaps my grandmother and the previous owners of this property once played bridge together.joho said:Old fashioned grandeur. Nice bar and games room.

Yes it does, and when the owner's furniture and stuff is gone there will still be some good art deco features there.FreeBear said:joho said:Old fashioned grandeur. Nice bar and games room.

I dislike the (almost) ceiling level LED strip lighting. Save it for a naff modern build, not an art deco property... As for the offending ceilings - It looks like they might be suspended panels, in which case, easy to replace.

YEs, love the Art Deco feautures but some of the more recent design choices are defnitely not to my taste . I'm sad they didn't include photos of the Mancave (also the agents overuse of the word 'stylish' is mildly irritating!)GaleSF63 said:
