Found this delight on Rightmove today!

Elegance personified…

Coco Chanel would have loved to see her logo on a toilet lid

I think there’s a fridge freezer in the bedroom???

I don’t know what this thing is

    Seems a bit like a traveler’s (Roma/Sinti) idea of heaven. Gaudy interiors, much more space than a mobile home and plenty of tarmac for family to come over and stay.

      They’re over 70.

      No need for a proper sink in the kitchen as they exist on Wiltshire Farm Foods 👍

    Depends on how much land comes with the house. I would renovate the hell out of the house though. But if the framework is in decent shape and it’s in a good location it could be made to look very nice.

      How is this not the entire topic of discussion.

      We put a bed with too many cabinets at this end of the room, now what to put at the other end. I know! A toilet. Right there in the center facing the bed to help maintain eye contact!

    I don’t care for the style, but I’ve seen lots of people that like this kind of thing in the states. The large property reminds me of much of the rural southeastern USA. It looks like someone that wanted a higher class of living than they achieved. The behavior manifests a lot more in car culture or clothing, at least more visibly. This kind of spending is what really drives the economy. If you find advertising and marketing to be adolescent nonsense, you’re not the target audience. But there is a target audience getting the message and driving the cycle, even for a toilet seat, or cartoon flying contraptions for the back of the most pedestrian of front wheel drive cars, or seafoam green surrounded stones marketed to people as the very meaning of love. Gullible people willingly to overvalue nonsense drive the world.

    Being 2 hours from the closest city is worse than anything about the property itself.

    That thing you couldn’t identify is a sink.

    I’m familiar with this. It’s Greek diaspora architecture. You can tell from the everything about it.
