    Get the agent to re-do those pictures? I'd be embarrassed taking pictures like numbers 3,4,5 and 6 and I'm only an amateur. Were their batteries failing until they got to take number 6 at which point the flash filled the foreground and not the area they were supposed to be focusing on? Doesn't anyone have a copy of Photoshop? (Or can anyone use it maybe?)

    I think the photos of the front room have not done any favours, especially 3, its a picture of a tv? they are also quite dark.

    Kids bedrooms could do with a de clutter, maybe get rid of some of the furniture as is there is two or three chest of drawers in each room, toys on top and on the floor - gives the impression of no room. maybe a lighter colour on the walls? Third bedroom is not a good photo - maybe get the agent to take it out.

    Third bedroom is very narrow, which I would find off putting, how much are two bedroom houses going for? would be be worth making it back into a two bed house for decent size bedrooms?

    Just found the floorplan, and the toilet is away from the bathroom, inbetween the bedrooms. Can this be moved?

    Is the outside pink? If so that would put me off for a start. I'd be thinking I would need the expense of an outside paint job as soon as I moved in.

    The only other negative is the childrens bedroom. The blue makes it look very oppresive, so perhaps if you could at least paint one or two of the walls to lighten it up, it may may it look a much more inviting & spacious room.
    The bigger the bargain, the better I feel.

    I should mention that there's only one of me, don't confuse me with others of the same name.
