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

    “Do you like storage? Well here we have storage above your bed, and storage around your bed, and storage and a fridge beside your bed. Think about all the stuff you can store!”

    The last photo is a “fancy” sink. Usually done to put lipstick on a flip, but here I think it’s just bad taste

      Especially since that’s in a kitchen island. You put that crap in guest bathrooms where the only thing it’s ever used for is washing your hands. Not for meal prep.

    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.

    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.

    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.

      Rip out the horrible interior, extend, it could look really nice!

      In it’s current state though, it’s just bizarre. It’s like an ‘upmarket’ house in the countryside for sex parties… Maybe the weird hand wash basin in the kitchen is for rinsing your dick in?

        I think that’s either for fresh fruit or if it’s near a door it’s for holding your keys

        Edit: nevermind. It’s definitely a weird sink

    Imagine how many things you’d lose in that house with all that cabinet space. “Now which cabinet did I put my winter clothes in? One of the 40 around my bed? One of the other 40 around the other bed?”

      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!

        It’s definitely a medical room like the other commentor said. Most likely for somebody with long term limited mobility. Everything they need within 5 minutes of slow moving. I’ve had relatives who would have lived in rooms like this if they could have.
