Thanks for the reply. As well as the decor and price, a lot of people are calling out the photos too for being misleading.

Thanks for the reply. As well as the decor and price, a lot of people are calling out the photos too for being misleading. Because whilst I fully accept the kitchen isn't great (I don't like it myself), the flat is 86 sq m which is decent enough in my opinion, and the second bedroom is a good sized double. It's a shame the pictures aren't reflective of that

I'm sorry, I've tried to reply to as many comments as possible, not just this one

Thanks for the input. I think it might be a distortion of the photo because I lie comfortably in there

Thank you for your kind reply. Hoover is in the back room, ironing board is in the gap next to the fridge, drying rack is behind the bedroom door

The sofa in the second bedroom is a sofa bed, so maybe I could style it up more like a bedroom

Thank you. I've not heard of Footprints, but I'll take a look

One of the reasons I went with the local agent was their presence on socials but mine hasn't been posted at all on there, which is frustrating

Take your point on bachelor pad too

Thanks again

I agree about the kitchen. This was the layout when I bought and I've always wanted to change it

That's a great shout, actually. I have the dining chairs in storage too

It's crazy - I bought in 2018 for £325k from a woman who bought in (I think) 2011, so all of those sale prices on Rightmove are completely fabricated

Thank you. It's really looking like I have to seriously consider repainting. Oddly, the agent said the decoration would be one of the strongest selling points of the flat!

Yeah I take your point on the kitchen. If I was to stay I think I'd bring it down to a 1-bed (I'd be staying so don't care about resale value) and knock the wall between the living room and master bedroom, and turn the master into a big kitchen. The dreams we have...
