I wouldn’t call it a nightmare but I wish people would stop needlessly converting / extending. What a waste and building for building’s sake.

It's not dear, and quite versatile. Suppose you work from home chiropractor or such like, useful space that.

They’ve turned a garage into a storage space with a more awkward door on. It’s nonsense.

Personally I read the claim of one as further evidence of the EA's bulls**t hyperbole.

The definition of a porch - a structure attached to the exterior of a building often forming a covered entrance. That looks an integrated part of the building to my eyes?

truth be told I didn't even read the particulars - the 1st pic was enough for me I agree it might be practical for various WFH businesses (counselor/chiropractor/chiropodist/etc) but it does look totally pants

Another architectural gem. (sorry no porch)

That's just incredibly drab

That house looks like it has been built back-to-front and the current owners have tried to rectify this.

Hallway and living room in a "normal" semi would lead from the front, with kitchen and dining towards the rear.

I know some houses like this are built with a rear garage due to main roads etc being at the front, but for the life of me I can't work it out.

It also looks a bit naff.

I don't get it, why do people keep posting links to houses which are perfectly nice and most certainly NOT nightmares.

You're right, off track we should desist.

A thread for awkward extensions would be worthwhile though.

Back on track, this maisonette has nightmare potential.

You mean it doesn’t have serious kerb appeal or whatever bks the agent is spewing?

Why?

Okay you got me.

How about this?

Perfectly livable, but at the same time somehow wrong.

That’s not a nightmare.

I’d be interested to see the posters gaff if that qualifies for thread.

Really nice place I’d say.

Very much this. When I was looking to move a couple of years back I found a house that was ideal apart from the garage had been converted into another 'lounge'

As far as I'm aware it never sold and has been taken off the market.

This thread is really going downhill, crap decor and loads of junk but hardly a nightmare and not even in the crap part of Wakefield

Ok what makes a nightmare maybe we should re calibrate so we know
