Five-bedroom detached house on sale for £700k has 'incredibly trashy' feature

Daily Mail​22-06-2025
A five-bedroom detached house has gone on the market for £700k - but it comes with one 'incredibly trashy' feature that property hunters are calling 'absolutely wild'.
At first glance, the home in Waddesdon, Aylesbury, appears pretty standard with its red-brick interior and spacious, grey-scale living area.
And in the current economy snapping up a house with that many rooms for £699,950 is a deal many buyers would think about making.
But on closer inspection there is a very unusual element that appears to have left even the most seasoned house hunters lost for words.
The bathroom contains £50 note wallpaper plastered all around the wall.
Taking to TikTok, @HousingHorrors had a peek at the extremely unusual choice of interior and even branded it 'definitely a first' they had 'ever seen' on the property website Rightmove.
The presenter added: 'You get to the b***** bathroom and they've got £50 note wallpaper stuck to the wall - I'm sorry, this is insane. This is absolutely wild.
'And it goes all the way round.'
'I've just got so many questions - why on earth would you want £50 wallpaper stuck to your bathroom wall?
'Obviously it's their house, they can do whatever they want with it but I have to say this is definitely a first I have ever seen on Rightmove.'
Surreal images of the bathroom show how a single black toilet and sink are surrounded by the large 50 pound notes - of varying sizes and pointing in all kind of directions.
The social media personality questioned whether the wallpaper was a 'custom-made thing' or if someone could 'just buy this'.
While the house does seem fairly standard at first, other images reveal an underlying quirky touch applied to it by its owners.
For example, the dining area has a massive glass chandelier that hands off the ceiling ominously over a table.
And close by, there is another strange aspect to grace the ground floor ceiling - in the form of a massive mirror that reflects the black and white chequered kitchen floor.

In another, smaller room, the owners have been unable to resist the temptation of incorporating a large golden-framed mirror.
The area also contains its own chandelier, giving it a strangely fantastical touch.
And lastly, another room contains its own 'very interesting' wallpaper with the late Queen showcased on the wall in an iconic pop art format.
But it is only the bathroom that boasts the captivating £50 wallpaper which the TikToker has asked people's thoughts on.
In response to the video, one person commented: 'Incredibly trashy.'
But not everyone was so disapproving as someone else said: 'This isn't a horror - this is brilliant, it works quite well.'
The property is advertised as an 'impressive house in the sought after village of Waddesdon'.
Though, viewing is 'highly advised'.

Warning to 90,000 Brits heading to Leeds Festival TODAY to ‘avoid using satnavs' & follow ‘temporary speed limits'

MUSIC fans driving to Leeds Festival today are being urged to stay mindful of a series of road-related warnings. The huge event, which is set to attract some 90,000 attendees, will see the likes of Chappell Roan, Travis Scott and Hozier perform. 5 5 5 5 5 But drivers heading to the event by car have been warned to be extra attentive - with officials with National Highways telling road users to avoid using their satnavs. As expected, traffic will likely be heavy and will be complicated by roadworks combined with temporary speed limits and festival-related closures. The iconic festival, which takes place at Bramham Park and runs from Thursday, August 21, to Sunday, August 24, coincides with the bank holiday weekend - which is expected to further exacerbate traffic delays. National Highways has warned of severe congestion on major roads and motorways, particularly the M1, A1(M) and A64. Junctions 43 to 45 of the A1(M), including Hook Moor where the A1(M) and M1 merge, are expected to be especially affected. The A1(M) southbound between junctions 44 and 47 will likely be slow on Monday due to festival-goers leaving the site on top of bank holiday traffic. But in addition to congestion warnings, motorists are advised that temporary speed limits of 30mph have been introduced on Paradise Way, West Woods Road and the A64 York Road between Bramham crossroads roundabout and approximately 500m northeast of Stockeld Lane. These speed limits, enforced by West Yorkshire Police, will be in place from Wednesday, August 20, to Monday, August 25. These measures, introduced by Leeds City Council and West Yorkshire Police, aim to ensure the safety of those attending the festival, as well as local residents and other motorists. Paul Jeffrey, lead for the West Yorkshire Safety Camera Partnership, said: 'West Yorkshire Police is working closely with our partners at Leeds City Council to support the 2025 Leeds Festival. Heartbroken band pulls out of Reading and Leeds Festival after 'running out of money' 'This includes carrying out speed enforcement on roads around the venue to provide safety to motorists, festival attendees and local residents.' Dave Skupski, National Highways Operations Manager, also emphasised the importance of planning ahead. He said: 'Leeds Festival has a significant impact on traffic on our network. 'With the bank holiday weekend and ongoing concrete barrier works reducing capacity, we expect roads to be extremely busy. 'Follow festival signage, pay attention to electronic updates, avoid relying solely on satnavs and plan your journey carefully.' For non-festival travellers, he advises drivers to allow extra time for their journeys and to trty to avoid peak times where possible. National Highways will deploy additional traffic officers and use electronic signage to manage disruptions, while control room operators will monitor traffic via CCTV. In general, whether drivers are heading to the festival or other plans or responsibilities, officials urged patience and caution to all those on the road to ensure safe and smooth travel during the busy period. Traffic is expected to be busiest at the following times: Thursday: 8am to 4pm Friday to Sunday: 10am to 1pm Saturday and Sunday nights: 9pm to 2am Bank Holiday Monday: 8am to 2pm To support traffic flow, the northbound exit slip road at Junction 45 of the A1(M) will be closed from 4am to 2pm on Monday. What's more, the A64 westbound approach to the A1(M) will be closed to through-traffic after the Bramham crossroads. The Coastliner bus service between York and Leeds will be diverted during the festival.

Robbie Williams says he would open for Oasis despite decades-long rivalry

Popstar Robbie Williams has said he would open for Oasis despite a longstanding feud between the musicians. The rivalry allegedly began more than two decades ago, which saw the 90s Britpop stars, Liam and Noel Gallagher from Oasis and Williams, exchange insults at each other, including a challenge made by the Rock DJ singer at the 2000 Brit Awards Ceremony to fight Liam. Advertisement The feud, however, appears to have subsided with Williams saying that despite not being friends, they are not 'enemies'. Robbie Williams. Photo: Ben Whitley/PA. Speaking to ITV News, Williams said: 'I would open for Oasis. In this moment that they're having right now, they are omnipresent and they are the peak Zeitgeist. 'I can't compete with that. So I would, I would open for Oasis. 'We're not exactly friends, but I don't think we're enemies.' Advertisement The comments come as Oasis are preparing to set off for their North American leg of their Oasis Live '25 world tour. He also told the broadcaster that he would not give his children phones, describing them as a 'drug'.

He said: 'They don't have phones. They're not going to have phones for as long as humanly possible. And you know they're gonna go, they are at school, other people have phones, why can't I have a phone? Tough. 'That's as simple as it is. I'm 51, I can't deal with the corrosive nature of the internet and things. It hurts me. It ruins my day. Advertisement 'How can I give this drug to a 12-year-old? How can I give this drug to a seven-year-old? It's abuse.' Prior to launching his solo career, Williams was part of the boyband Take That which was behind the hit songs Pray, Everything Changes and Sure. He left the group in 1995 and released his chart-topping debut album Life Thru A Lens in 1997. Other number one albums by the singer include I've Been Expecting You (1998), Sing When You're Winning (2000), Escapology (2002), Intensive Care (2005) and Rudebox (2006).

I bought nine £4 bags of charity shop rejects – I've made £300 & still have lots to list… here's where you can get yours

A WOMAN who bought nine £4 bags of charity shop rejects to resell has revealed where you can get them to do the same. Danielle has turned her passion for reselling into a lucrative side hustle, and consistently has new ideas on how she can flip things to make a profit. 5 5 5 5 In a video on her TikTok page, Danielle showed the huge bags she had nabbed from a local charity shop, stuffed full of a whopping 266 items. As she delved into the sacks, she pulled out some stunning items, including a pair of Topshop jeans, a blue Monki dress and a new with tags striped red and white dress from New Look. She explained that the items were all things that the charity shop "couldn't sell" and - after going through them - she decided that 175 were more suited for an upcoming car boot sale she's doing. That left her with 91 items to list for sale online. "It's been 10 days since I picked up these bags, so have I made any money?" she said in the clip. "So far, I've sold 28 items for a total of £184, bringing my profit so far to £303, and I still have 63 items to sell online and a car boot to do with the rest of the items." In the comments section, Danielle was bombarded with questions asking how she managed to get her hands on the bags. To which she replied: "The charity shop reached out to me, but honestly, just speak to your local charity shop. "A lot of them are getting paid pennies for rags nowadays, so they're more than happy to sell you their unsold stock at a few pounds a bag." Elsewhere in the comments, one person wrote: "What a great pickup!! Car boot sale video incoming soon I hope!" The secret part of the charity shop you're forgetting to check for unique buys - I found a perfect dress in mine for £4 "This is amazing, it would be interesting to see what the charity shop had them listed as vs what you could sell them for," another added. "I do think more people are shopping online for secondhand though so reaches a broader audience." "The broader audience is the key," Danielle agreed. "All of these items were originally £6 and under, and then reduced and still didn't sell!" "Seems like it might be a good little partnership to have," a third agreed. "Always a good way to source new stock!" Top charity shop tips for bagging a bargain Ross Dutton has been a manager for Crisis's charity shops for four years and currently runs the charity's Finsbury Park shop in London. Choose your area - As a rule of thumb, the posher the area, the better quality the clothes that are donated. Don't hang around - If you see something you like, buy it, as it'll likely be gone when you come back Look out for cut-off labels - Some of your favourite high street stores will have deals with local charity shops to donate stock that isn't sold during their own sales. Often part of the deal is that they need to cut the labels off the clothes. Stay at home - While some charities have their own site, like Oxfam and Crisis. many also sell from dedicated eBay stores, such as British Heart Foundation and Scope. You won't get the range of bargains that you would get in a physical store, but if you're looking for something specific it may be worth checking online too. "I actually have those jeans in the first clip!" someone else laughed. "Well they sold, so clearly very stylish and not at all unsaleable," Danielle responded. Another asked how many hours she'd spent getting the items, listing online and selling them, to which Danielle said: "It's difficult because I sell on Whatnot so I sold 100 items in the 1.5hr show (not just the 20ish of these items). "But I'd say 2 hrs picking up, going through bags, editing videos and then however long it took to pack up the 28 items (hard to distinguish as they are bundled in with the other items from the show)."
