AAghh… it makes me feel itchy just looking at it!
Those wardrobe doors have never been closed - look at the bag straps hanging from the top! And the dust and grot on the wardrobes and floors hasn't been disturbed in months.
I think they are hoping that the kitchen will sell the house. Its much cleaner than the rest of the house so they must of worked on 'staging' the kitchen.
I laughed at this photo - they didnt even bother to close the wardrobe doors which would make the room look a bit neater. I cant work out if thats a bag on the floor or someones shorts and underpants 🤣. It looks like someone in the house doesnt want to sell.
Vaguely similar, we once looked at a place which was student digs at the time. Stank of weed and someone had drawn pictures of naked women on the battered white leather sofa, with permanent marker.
I think that is probably the house tidied up!! 🤣. It probably was much worse
They havent done themselves any favours when trying to sell their house as some people wont be able to see beyond the clutter. I would be embarrassed for anyone to see my house looking like that.
THe first house we bought had teenage kids, or early twenties. 3 bed house. We viewed twice, both times one bedroom still had a sleeping body and a strong smell of weed. I reckon it scared off other bidders and saved us a few grand.
speaking of clutter, the most unusual 'clutter' i saw in a house while viewing one (late 2002 or early 2003) was a small child asleep in a cot. the family living in the house vacated it for the viewing but obviously decided not to wake their kid first.
Kinda funny that they made a production of the dining room with the table settings and all, then barely bothered to tidy the bedrooms, looks messy to me, but really if you want a house and are put off by a bit of clutter then you are going to have a problem finding what you want. Also if you allow yourself to be distracted by the fact that a house looks really tidy and superficially attractive you could miss damp patches and dodgy heating pipes and rotten fascias etc.
If I was a betting person, I'd say the seller is reluctantly down sizing either due to age or due to charged family circumstances. It's a lovely building and probably worth every penny. The fundamentals look very good. Clutter is easy put right.
It does say something about the seller though, if they aren't bothered to clean up what else have they neglected
Ah now, it's not that bad; it just looks like a house that people actually live in. Could have done with a bit more tidying up in a few spots, sure, but it's not like it's some sort of hoarder's nightmare.
This lad I think, planning is in his name anyway;

25 pictures before they show the cluttered inside including dirty towels
I pondered that but they don't seem to have had much in the way of spending limits on the rebuild
Mystified why solar panels and underfloor were not put in
Cost most likely.
I like it, I don't want my house flooded with light and imagining it with less 'stuff' everywhere it seems like a good combination of old world and modern building advances.. Mystified why solar panels and underfloor were not put in
I've seen that place flooded in the past. before it was rebuilt.
Fire lit outside near a stream all I can think about is all the flies on a summer evening.
I can't see past the 86 photos of clutter. Gave up half way.
A good declutter would transform that, it is beautiful. No BER given but it was rebuilt in 2010 so should be a B2 or B1.
Don't see the attraction here. Looks cold, damp, dark. You would think they would put more effort into the photos. Looks like a five year old took them.
This is beautiful, very little I dislike about it and anything I'd change would be cosmetic. I pass it regularly and it's set on a very busy road, the house is only a few feet from the traffic. Most of the outside space is set behind the house tho so I'd easily put up with the road.
Anyone know who built it originally??
Love the pool though
Big overblown place in clare? Built by trump?
The curved roof, all I can see is farm shed
Nearly. ten. million. Right.
Whats that strange blue box in pic 8?
And there is a weed in the patio terrace. Fire the gardener.
I’m trying to get rid.
And it still hasn't sold.
That has made many appearances in this thread so far. Every so often someone posts it again.
