Feast your eyes on this!
Wow. :shock:

It’s really, like, erm. Isn’t it?

12,709 sq.ft, and most of it just needs a bit more… space. :?

It is just that. While I'm not sure why you'd need a sauna in Florida, it would at least provide some kind of respite from the visual onslaught of the decor. Getting tired eyes and a headache just looking at the pictures.

i was going to comment on the blue roof, but once you’ve seen the insides, it kind of wasn’t worth it! How does anyone even find that much “stuff” to put in the walls?! Its exhausting just looking through the photos?!

My confession is that I subscribe to Country Life merely because of the Property Porn we see in its front pages every week.

I'm unsure if I hate the house designed by a child jacked up on sugar and e-numbers more than her very bad acting of shocked face.

I mean, having a secret passage in your house is cool but it needs to be the juxtaposition with the normal.

It’s probably rented out on air bnb making a fortune rather than somewhere to live in

This place is a bit odd. If you're paying £7m, why are two of the bedrooms sharing an en suite? Whoever designs an en suite without a door clearly has never had a partner.

The clear sided bath is a bit of an odd choice, too.

Bath is extremely strange. Wonder if it’s up for sale because they’ve developed knee issues and realised spiral staircases aren’t necessarily the best staircase design to choose

The design of the house is also weird for me. Surprised it a 2020 build. Looks like a 90’s Travelodge which has been rerendered and had some walls replaced with floor to ceiling windows.
How about not having a sig at all?

Now that's not fair.

It's more like a three star Best Western.

I’ve always lusted after this little row of houses by the ponds on Hampstead Heath and one of them is finally for sale. Will deffo put in an offer, if they can remove the 6 at the start of the price 😂

You’ve really got to wonder who can afford and want a £6.5m for a (large) 4 bed semi detached house with no off road parking and a pretty tired interior and garden. You’d want to spend another £250k+ sorting it out including tearing down the shitty conservatory and MFI kitchen units!
