I quite like that. :)) Though I am not sure about the shiny trip hazard looking floors.

Woah! A house that has an "inventor" rather than an architect absolutely belongs here :)) How utterly tonto - when are you moving in Est?

It really reminds me of a Tai fighter from Star Wars :))

I don't like it. I think it looks good from the outside but the inside is giving me the twitch.

It looks terribly dated to me inside (not in a good way). It’s crazy though. I sent it to MrE earlier and it turns out someone at his work has used the owner’s professional services before. Ipswich is not the nicest of areas.

It's a bit steampunk-adjacent. The scenery is beautiful though.

Is it possible to look "terribly dated" in a good way? :lol:

I absolutely love this!
Do not walk behind me, for I may not lead. Do not walk ahead of me, for I may not follow. Do not walk beside me either, just fuck off and leave me alone.

I kind of love it too. The sofas are horrible though.

It's like a hobbit house of the future.

The sofas are the most dated bit, I think.

I hate everything about it. It's dated and looks grubby.

It looks like Uncle Owen and Aunt Beru’s house from Star Wars, without the desert and the droids.

It’s like a normal midlife crisis only with more chandeliers and foreign languages.

I love that, Est! The interior needs totally redoing then it could be wonderful.
