I love the saloon doors between the kitchen and utility room.
It looks like the radiators were retrofitted and skirts taken out in places and they didn't bother putting them back. You can see pipework running behind the bed in the master bedroom.
At first I thought they were garden furniture with their covers on in the winter.
Now I have no idea what they are, it's a random pattern for hedges!
The bedrooms haven't been updated since Elvis was living in Graceland.
The kitchen and bathroom are wonderfully quirky. Take the carpet out of the en suite bathroom and it's fabulous!
I love the garden gazebo too.
The house next door sold a few years back, the new owners bulldozed the bungalow and built a massive 2 story house in it's place. Thankfully they put up a big fence and gates and it can't be seen from the road because it's a very boring sterile looking monstrosity.
An absolutely brilliant find for the thread. I am going to go back through all the photos later to enjoy the mad colours and furnishings. I sometimes give up if there's loads of photos but I love that - not as a house I would want, but very enjoyable to look through. 😁
Oh I would say definitely, very posh altogether, back in the day.
Good lord.
But I'll say one thing for it. Everything looks like it has been kept clean. Some rooms don't have skirting boards, which I find odd.
I don't think they're hay bales. Random hedges in the middle of the lawn they look like to me.
Oh my goodness, that's outstandingly fantastic!
The clash of styles/patterns in a lot of the rooms…. there are a couple of rugs there that I'd pay them a lot of money for, they're absolutely beautiful! I think the gold headboard and pelmet above the bed in the master bedroom wins for me.
Plus a garden big enough to have hay bales in, PLUS the gazebo from the Sound of Music!!
The beds with the pink duvets look so comfy! Like something your Granny would have for when you come to stay!
I had no idea I've driven past that hundreds of times 😮 While it's not my cup of tea, I have to give a tip of the hat to them. It's certainly interesting and must have been considered a bit posh back in the day.
bit of a time capsule that one, some of the living areas are interesting, bedrooms are nightmare stuff
If it's bathroom carpet that makes you squirm, take a look at photo 34 of this beauty. Oh and have a look at the velour overload in the bedrooms too. It's like the house that time forgot, with a few updates of gilt mirrors and lighting.

You would look more potent in your Range Rover if you did not hit the tree. Or "beech tress" as they were spelt.
You can rev up a powerful engine in your Range Rover and hit a beech tree. Guess which one will look potent thereafter.
An engine can be powerful. I am not sure it is the right adjective for "beech tress".
It's got 'powerful beech tress' on the property too.
I really like that! Love the veranda outside. Very classy looking house
I noticed that too, very strange wording.
Id love a house like that with the huge garden and archways/porches but they look narrow enough, not ideal for sitting under them in my rocking chair and my shotgun on my lap in any kind of rain. That's gonna take some money to get upto a decent standard. It could be beautiful when finished tho.
"unreal interior" even the real estate agent couldn't dress it up!.
Dear god, I can smell that bathroom carpet…😕
Ah now, I don't think one little stripey gable end really qualifies as mock Tudor. Especially with the Victorian bargeboards.
The double garage door under the crenellations is a bit kind of anachronistic, the whole thing is so confused that its hard to decide whether you like it or not. Then you go inside and suddenly it doesn't matter whether you like the outside or not, and you don't even care how much it is.
Very old interior. I hope they are not looking for much for it as it needs a overhaul.
How about a mock Tudor bungalow with a Victorian wraparound front porch and a castellated garage?

Mod - I have set up a separate thread for the discussion re raffling a house. Please continue that discussion on the new thread. Thanks.
The most obvious thing is a special needs child with sensory sensitivity
That is a good set for the scene of a horror movie . I wonder why there are no inside pictures and the terms of rental unknown ? An inherited house ? Terrible tenants ?
That room is so weird . I am sure they must have some reason for it though
oh it is beautiful!
Well that's my pastel fix for 2025 sorted….
Came here to post this. What the actual fcuk!
