Five-bed £850,000 family house on market has CARPET on the WALLS

A five-bedroom family house selling for £850,000 has left home hunters baffled because it has CARPET on the WALLS.

The semi-detached home looks very unassuming from the outside.

It has a modern kitchen diner and a utility room to the side.

Four of the bedrooms are on the first floor as is the main bathroom.

The largest one is in the converted loft with its own en-suite.

The back garden has a stylish patio area.

But it is the living room of the property in posh Marlow, Bucks, which has got potential buyers talking.

It has a very thick green, shagpile carpet on the floor.

But it is also up the four walls of the living room.

One house hunter said: “If I bought this house I wouldn’t be able to stop stroking these green shag carpet walls.”

The home is being sold by Quicklister estate agents and advertised on Rightmove.

The listing makes no mention of the unusual wall coverings in the living room.

But it says the decor is “stylish” and “contemporary.”

It reads: “This property has been completely renovated by the current owners and now offers a high-quality, stylish and contemporary interior.

“The flexible living space is complemented with ample storage and new electric and water systems.

“The entrance hall opens into the sitting room and a handmade open-plan kitchen with integrated appliances and a walk-in pantry.

“The vaulted rear entertaining room includes dining/living space and a study area.

“From the kitchen, there is access to a large utility room and downstairs cloakroom with shower.

“There is underfloor heating throughout.

“On the first floor, there are three large double bedrooms, two with a Jack & Jill cloakroom, an additional single bedroom/study and a superb family bathroom.

“On the second floor, there is a master bedroom suite with a walk-in dressing area and stunning en-suite bathroom.

“Outside there is a landscaped rear garden with entertaining terrace and seating area, an integral garage store, and ample off-road parking.”

It adds: “Marlow is an attractive and popular riverside town with a pretty high street offering a mix of independent and chain stores as well as excellent coffee shops, pubs and restaurants.”
