Where's the front door gone?

Poky looking entrance at the top of the steps.  Another one being economical with the windows.

I didn’t even see the door.  If the intention was to provide a porch along with shade for that window there were other options that would add so much more.  A verandah with a bench and shallow steps for example.  

The "before" version is available on Streetview. Don't really understand the thinking though!

The whole estate is quite a strange place, architecturally and certainly worth a virtual drive about in.  Looks almost as if a social housing builder has tried to design mansions and has ended up with buildings that resemble small blocks of flats.  

The rogue portico may have a function as a rain diverter, if the addition of the dormer window has somehow affected the flow of water down the main span of the roof.  Only a suggestion, mind, it is a mysterious addition.

The bungalow next door is a beauty if you like hips on your roof:

When I first saw that I thought it was one of those "Only people with a high IQ can solve this problem".

Then I saw a problem...

Good quality fake grass here. They also seem to have a dishwasher blocking half the patio doors, presumably because the kitchen is too small to fit it properly.

Not really, because many, if not most  patio doors, open outwards.

Is this the most ever in terms of ££££ per square metre of floor area?

Blurb says long term tenant paying £360pm and has vacant possession. Contradiction there.

and certainly looks vacant as total lack of furniture or signs of life (like soap, TP)
