    They're between the kitchen and back sitting room which was probably added as a later extension so I reckon the doors could have been the original ones out to the garden!

    There's a second pair between the hall and the narrow TV room though.

    FYP!


    Either that's a flipping huge sofa in that room, or there are some dodgy camera lenses/angles being used.....


    I thought from the pics that the original sitting room had been split in two down the middle to make the two rooms, but seeing as the other room is out the back, that's the original room, it surely can't be that narrow???

    What's the point of this room? Like, what do you do in it?

    You're right, I thought it was the other sitting room.

    Dust the porcelain? It looks like the old style "good room" that you couldn't use unless it was to impress guests.

    But there is no where for them to sit while being impressed!

    But aside from the 3 dining chairs tucked in one corner and the stool in another, there's nowhere to sit.

    I guess you could stand in front of the fire, rubbing your hands, looking at your reflection basked in purple light, while being careful not to turn too fast and knock anything over.

    The table and chairs would allow an upclose inspection of the display cabinet and whatever treasures it contains!

    If anyone fancies living in an episode of Black Mirror, now is your chance. And I really wouldn't fancy sitting on that jacks on a cold morning

    Does that house come with a synthesised human to maintain the premises and organise your day?

    "We all live in a colourless submarine"

    I initially wondered why the photos were black and white. What a soulless, joyless living space.

    I'm gonna take a stab at that being a childless owner. Or childfree. Either way there is not a shred of a chance that the grubby hands of a kid ever groped their way around all that chrome!!

    the stainless steel sanitaryware looks like it should be in a prison.

    It could also double as a torture chamber to devoid captives of sensory stimuli, slowly warp their perception and drive them insane.

    I only got through a few pictures.
    My eyes started to hurt with the brightness and of the chrome, chrome, chrome everything.

    Chrome and white is a very stark combination, you'd need sunglasses in even a ray of sunshine.

    Which is probably why the house only has 3 windows, and two of them are in one room.
