I've had a quick look on the maps but I haven't spotted where it actually is yet. Thought it might have been here but it's not quite the right shape - https://goo.gl/maps/DfGYcWRTCGp
Fairly sure it's this one
OK, "secluded" could mean away from roads etc, but that house isn't in half-an-acre, is it?
The shape of that house isn't right if you compare it to the floorplan.
Yes it is, here it is with the house outlined in black on the map.

First couple of photos are ok - nothing alarming. But then as you click on - it all goes a bit, well odd!

Who lives in a place like this?
Could tell they'd be mental as soon as I saw the first picture. That stupid fence was a giveaway.

Found this gem,

https://www.rightmove.co.uk/property-for-sale/prop...

Although the house its self isn't too bad, the decor is. It reminds me of my Grandfather, could just see him smoking his pipe in front of that fireplace.

Decor to die for, well looks like someone has died! Dog st friendly garden, child killing internal doors (that glass!).

Its funny how fashions come and go, not saying that carpet will be a big seller in the next few years, but the kitchen floor, if tiles and not vinyl, is definitely back in.

I'm not familar with the area, but I'd say it's on the money though.

One of the bath taps has given up on life.

Probably, but very nondescript for that sort of money. smile

Looks like an ideal FTB, better than the house I started with!

Horrible for so many reasons, before you even see the price.

https://www.rightmove.co.uk/property-for-sale/prop...

Ugly new build rear is unsurprisingly worse than the gopping front, on the end of a row with a dodgy looking underpass to the main road that runs right along the rear giving road users a nice look into the first floor windows and garden. Interior design by bedlam lunatic asylum's shiny floor department. A burglar's paradise with multiple exit routes to all areas.

The view from the main road - https://goo.gl/maps/GPnRV71idJy


Ps. £1.6m all those big glass windows at the front and they go cheap on the door - https://goo.gl/maps/YBjrrsrsPbm

Yuk, horrible development!

Its neighbour seemed to be quite cheap a few years back.
