It’s changed agents and had a price drop of circa £100k (IIRC) but the horrific interior decor remains.
The room with all the baby paraphernalia, and a causal barbell with 60kg on it. (picture 9).https://www.rightmove.co.uk/property-for-sale/prop...

We viewed a place similar (perhaps a bit worse) when we were looking, old boy in his own and had died, every room full of stuff. It was a lovely house but would have been a full strip back and several skips to clear the lotIt was the smell that got us though, it got into your nostrels and stayed there, we then noticed that the 3 piece suite was missing an armchair near the fire and there was a patch of carpet where you could see the chair had obviously been
It quickly became apparent the old boy had died in his chair, they'd removed the chair and marketed the place, i'll never forget that smell

Do your maths on the clearance / refurb and offer accordingly. Everyone’s a bit insulted by the offer... fair enough. Just sit and wait. There’s not much competition as 9/10 people cba sorting it out. After the initial outrage of your offer has settled and no other offers have come in... you start negotiations from your offer number rather than the agents asking price. I love a nice house that’s poorly poorly presented / marketed by its lazy / feckless vendors.

I really like the matchbox radiators, and the expanse of tarmac, oh and the not concealed circuit breaker box, and what's with the roof proportions? Looks like a small fat kit wearing a comically sized sombrero..
I like the 2 bathrooms where you open the door too much and the shower screens shatter http://www.rightmove.co.uk/s6p/75484462
This is hideous, and somehow looks cramped on the inside.
Location is bad as well.

The interior’s particularly bad. What’s with the fencing in the dining room? This is hideous, and somehow looks cramped on the inside.

That's how we bought our dreamhouse last July. Didn't realise it then - thought it was all 'market conditions' at the time.But after we'd moved in, and realised it had a fabulous 'Youth Hostel' type front door . . . the sellers and agent brought people in / out through a dingy conservatory, and realised the rooms weren't a little small . . . they were just full of huge 1970s furniture, etc, we realised we weren't actually compromising as much as we thought.
Huge plot, albeit long and thin, great location, double garage with power . . . not getting the presentation right must have cost them at least 10% off the price . . . and made it affordable for us.
