With five bedrooms, it's priced at £699,950 – a figure many buyers might even see as a bargain.
However, the house boasts a unique feature that has left some seasoned house hunters stunned.
The bathroom is covered in wallpaper decorated with £50 notes.
One TikToker came across the unusual interior design and described it as 'definitely a first' they had ever seen on the property website Rightmove.
They added: "This is absolutely wild."
"And it goes all the way around."
"This isn't horror - this is brilliant, it works quite well," commented one user.
Images of the bathroom show a single black toilet and sink, surrounded by oversized £50 notes plastered across the walls in all directions.
Yet, this is not the only quirky feature this five-bedroom property has.
In the dining area, a huge glass chandelier hangs ominously over the table.

Nearby, a massive mirror reflects the black and white chequered kitchen floor.
In a smaller room, the owners have installed another mirror, this one set in a large gold frame.
The decked-out space also features its own chandelier, making the room as unique as the rest of the property.
To top off the unique £700k detached house, the owners have covered the walls of another room with wallpaper featuring the late Queen in an iconic pop art style.
The five-bedroom property is advertised as an "impressive house in the sought-after village of Waddesdon".
It comes after an eccentric home in Shropshire has hit the market for £124,000.
The home comes complete with an exposed toilet at the top of the stairs - leaving its users in full view of anyone nearby.
It's a dream come true for prospective buyers seeking a live studio audience experience on the loo.
The first floor bog has no door or walls to mask the sights, sounds and smells that could occur when it's occupied.
The person who chose to design their toilet in full view of anyone coming upstairs is unknown.
But the property, on Birch Road, Ellesmere, seems absolutely normal when spotted from the street.
Despite its lack of boundaries, the two-bed has been described by estate agents as 'quirky and characterful.'
The mid-terrace town cottage has a kitchen and dining room, living room, master bedroom and study or second bedroom.
But its best feature is a large garden space, which expands to around 100 square feet.
Our posh village is now ghost town strewn with empty homes – we've slashed asking prices by £100k but no-one wants them
By Ben Endley Emily Jane Davies
STUNNING homes in a charming riverside village are now unsellable, with demand "falling off a cliff" after a tax blitz on second homes.
One homeowner was forced to slash £100,000 off the value of her waterside cottage in Cornwall - and still can't sell it.
Debbie Pugh-Jones lowered her asking price three times in 10 months and says the picturesque two-bed home is now priced the same as a small flat in a run-down area of some cities.
She lives in the quaint Cornish village of Goland, near the millionaire's playground of Fowey - where Dawn French and Gordon Ramsay have previously owned homes.
The 69-year-old listed the home for sale for £400,000 last August believing it would sell quickly as similar homes nearby sold for £425,000 during Covid.
She says increased stamp duty brought in nationwide combined with Cornwall Council's decision to double council tax rates on second homes has scared off potential buyers.
Tourist hotspots like Cornwall and Wales, a favourite for charming seaside getaways, have been embroiled in a "tax war" in recent years.
Residents say they can't afford to buy houses where they grew up as city dwellers snap them all up, only to stay there a fraction of the time when they fancy a get-away.
But local businesses say they can't survive without the revenue second home owners and holidaymakers bring in.
Debbie warned that the area is in danger of becoming a 'ghost town' due to unsold properties that are now lying vacant.
She told The Sun: 'When you come down that much in price you would expect to get a viewing but I've had three in nearly a year.
"Nobody at all looked around between November and April.
'Double council tax won't affect the very wealthy but it will affect the middle class people wanting to buy a second home.'
She added: 'The community is at risk of changing because some of the second home buyers in this village aren't happy to be paying double council tax.
'Around half of the houses in this village are second homes and the rest are retired people, there are very few people working in this village.
'It's making them struggle but even if they wanted to sell they wouldn't be able to.
'People living here used to work in farms and on the boats but all those industries are gone and the village doesn't have a school, it's not near a bus route and it doesn't have any amenities.
'I'm not depriving a first time buyer of a place to live because it's not the sort of house that would suit them.'
