Re: Strange & Unusual Houses
I am amazed that there aren't by-laws preventing people doing this sort of thing in Kensington!

Re: Strange & Unusual Houses
This is more of a strange and unusual listing, but check out the Streetview tab on this listing (you may have to move it around the 360 view). Oddness! :lol:

Re: Strange & Unusual Houses
How odd, and it actually looks like a kitchen showroom!

Re: Strange & Unusual Houses
Also, what weird photos of that house they've chosen to display. A running tap, and a gas hob - any why are those drawers open? The whole thing gives me the willies.

Re: Strange & Unusual Houses
Is it actually a kitchen showroom? the only reason I ask is because I looked at a property on streetview recently and it took me into the inside of our local department store :lol:

Re: Strange & Unusual Houses
I think it is a showroom. The outside seen through the windows is different from the picture showing the outside of the house.

Re: Strange & Unusual Houses
I got sent this today as we may be looking to move later this year to a rented place with more room. It's not all out terrible but why is there an electric fireplace in the kitchen ?: . What's with all the nasty pine? I can't seem to cut and paste pictures, so if you are so inclined have a look

That's had what I call the Full Swiss.
Re: Strange & Unusual Houses
Oh god. It could be really nice, but instead, CLADDING. And that fireplace/heater thing!

Re: Strange & Unusual Houses
There's a blog that I heard about through Cerise's Mr. Sax called Ugly Belgian Houses which should be worth a mention on this thread. There's some stunners on there:

Re: Strange & Unusual Houses
I did think, 'sauna' when I first saw it and I have no idea what the fireplace is :lol:

Re: Strange & Unusual Houses
That is awful. How can you expect to rent that out in that state :eek:
I came across this recently, and lovely as it is I think I'd have to paint over it.

Re: Strange & Unusual Houses
Gosh. Is it a B&B? That really looks like a run down B&B dining area.

Not a b&b. Just a house needing a lot of work by the looks of it

Re: Strange & Unusual Houses
Wow that has so much potential.
Re: Strange & Unusual Houses
What a weirdly tiny kitchen for such a substantial house. It looks more like it belongs in a flat.
