Houses 2

How's this pad? I just love it!

 From the rear it looks awfully ordinary ...
 but from the front!
 There's timber, and sunkenness and carpets for the ripping-up (and a dog's bed in the bedroom?)
Sunken lounge. 
Kitchen. I'd be in there in a millisecond and you wouldn't know the place!

    WOW! I'd love to see it after you get done with it.

      Yes, I like to see the potential. Houses for me don't need to be perfect.

    Is this a serious contender? Really?? Write the check today MMMC! Jump on it! I want that house! I'll be your au pair and lounge around in the pool all day. oh yeah, and watch the children.

      I'd buy it if we weren't stuck in this suburb until the end of next year. School-wise where we live is perfect. There's lots of houses like this one in the suburb I'm thinking of. Potential.

    That place has unbelievable potential. It could be an absolute showplace! I love it.

      So glad you approve, Mrs. It does have potential, that's why I like it. I can see my Eames Hang It All on the wall. At the moment, it sits in the box I received it in. It's never seen light of day. Poor colourful-balled thing.

    I can just see that house full of MCM furniture, wow! I don't think any house with a pool in the back looks ordinary, perhaps because where I live there aren't many in the ground pools. Amazing house, I hope you get it!!

      Neensy, I can see it filled with the right furniture too! Pools are everywhere over here. To the point where they're a danger. The Government needs to subsidise children's swimming lessons.

    Yes, I like it.
    Has it got a backyard other than the pool?

      I like it too. I'm not sure about the yard. I'm just cruising via the net. I can't bring myself to see houses for sale in real life yet.

    Buy I say ... and bugger the drive between where you are now & there ... or are we talking cross-tunnel commuting?

    Little Miss A-G, I can't! The drive is a nightmare. And there's no one who can do it. I'm at work. The husband's at work. South Koreans don't like to drive.

    Arthur Conias seems to get all the super retro RE in this town of ours :)

    Ordinary?? Look at that pool. If that what ordinary looks like in your side of the world I'm moving there tomorrow morning. Isn't the kitchen a bit small? I love all the woods.
