Reminds me of this monstrosity local to me. It's been on the market for years. I won't mention what the local rumours are regarding how the house was paid for...

What are the rumours?
That they had a successful business clearing 90's furniture?

Those two parts of the UK seem obsessed with sex ponds, hair products, pool tables, bars and everything that is gopping. Those things belong in pubs/clubs and hotels. I genuinely don’t get it.
I can tick all those boxes apart from the hair products, I've no great fascination with them if i'm honest.

The sex pond i'll accept was a waste of money, used once or twice now it just sits there burning money, perhaps it'll be used again in the summer.

The home bar/pool table/games room i wouldn't be without though. I love it and anyone that comes round to the house loves it as well, all the enjoyment of being in a pub/club with none of the associated downsides.
Where’s the fun in inviting people over so you can pretend to be a minimum wage barman at a regional lappo? wink

It’s perfectly possible to have a games room without it looking like a skank rental centre. That’s the bit that is baffling.

I think he means the original person who built it who was allegedly a member of a significant drugs gang.

I'm not 100% sure, it has electricity going to it though. I'm assuming it either lights up or heats.

I pretty sure it's got light tubes running through it, maybe it's sunbed tubes so you can get an all over tan while sitting down reading a book. hehe

Isn't it obvious, it's for the big dog/cyclops/fox (???) thing in the back garden to sit on when it rains.

Thick framed plastic windows really are atrocious, should be banned.

Halfway between Llandow and Merthyr Mawr though. Track day during the day, and al fresco shagging in the dunes by night. That's got to be worth something.

Reasonably substantial North Yorkshire village property, largely unremarkable.

Save that the current owners appear to have installed a lapdancing club.



The bar looks like it might be freeatanding, or at least easy to remove if you want and the LED pelmet lighting just looks tacky because it's set to that colour, that style of pelmet lighting is awesome when not set to sex club pink IMO.

Other than that it just looks like a nice big dining room.

Ah Marijuana Mansions. Only been on the market for about three years and dropped a million off the asking price in that time.

Is it me or does the property have abnormally low ceilings?
