Three-bedroom detached house on sale for £199k has a very unusual feature in the living room
A three-bedroom house has just gone on sale - but potential viewers will face a shock when they take a look at the living room. At first glance, this home in Bridgend seems like a typical detached property, boasting three floors and a garage on the side. And in the current economy snapping up the spacious house for £199,950 is a deal many buyers would think about making. On closer inspection, however, it has a very unusual feature that might not float everybody's boat. Embracing the area's proximity to the sea, this homeowner has hung an eight-foot shark on the wall. Taking to TikTok, @HousingHorrors took a peek at the terrifying interior decoration centrepiece, which boasts a blue and white design to match the walls. The detailed animal bust complements the old-fashioned diving suit which tops a bookcase in the room, but clashes sharply with an equally bizarre red model car. 'This is the b****y eight-foot shark. What the b****y hell are the owners thinking,' the TikToker said. 'Here's another angle of it and I need to zoom in. That is absolutely b****y huge, and not only that but there's also a photo of them, I'm assuming, diving. 'But also there's this weird car on the side here. I've never seen anything quite like this. 'It looks like there's some random figure with a bear on the side of it. Now, it's kind of cool, I don't mind it that much, but it is very very unusual. 'I suppose it's unique you could say.' The social media personality then pointed out that the model shark and accompanying retro car looked out of place alongside the relatively normal features of the rest of the house. But, in conclusion, the TikToker praised the mercurial design technique and at one point even joked, 'take my money'. He added: 'It's safe to say the absolute icing on the cake is definitely the eight-foot shark in the living room. 'I'd be interested to know what it's actually made of. I'm assuming it's fibre glass, I may be wrong, maybe plastic, but let me know what you guys think.' The rest of the living room consisted of a leather sofa and a circular mirror above a wood-burning stove. In another room, two leather chairs were decorated with tartan upholstery and a large portrait over another fireplace. One bedroom has been given a flash of colour by some olive green wall paint, while another features an unusual wooden four-poster frame. The property is described as dating back to the 1800s and being close to the M4 corridor. It lies on Cefn Glas Road in the Newcastle Hill area of the Welsh town and also boasts a garden.

People shocked by bizarre items found in every room of a 'normal' detached house on sale for £305k
A four-bedroom house on a quiet cul-de-sac has just gone on sale - but potential buyers face a shock if they look around the home for a viewing. From the outside, there is nothing out of the ordinary about the detached suburban property in Northallerton, North Yorkshire. And in the current market a four-bedroom detached house for £305,000 is a deal many buyers would think about making. However, despite the reasonable price, there's one unexpected feature that will grab the attention of prospective buyers. Many people may have kept their childhood teddy bear as a keepsake or to pass down to their own kids but this homeowner has taken it to a new level. Taking to TikTok, @HousingHorrors took a look around the home which is filled to the brim with stuffed animal toys. One of the bedrooms has a cabinet full of teddy bears of all different sizes, designs and colours. As if that wasn't enough, there are even more bears in home's three other bedrooms as well as the living room. It's not just teddy bears as if you look closely enough you can spot a number of other stuffed toy animals as well as several baby dolls. The overwhelming toy collection is mainly however teddy bears and is sure to cause a shock to anyone who takes a look inside. 'I have never seen so many teddy bears inside a house in my entire life,' the TikToker said: 'Upon first glance it does look pretty normal and then you get into the bedroom and "oh my days", look at all those eyes staring at you. 'Imagine going on a date and bringing a girl back for the first time and she goes into this room and all those eyes are staring at her. 'If she hated teddy bears she would be running out of that door straight away.' The TikToker added: 'But it does not end there because in this second bedroom there is even more bears and they are absolutely everywhere.' He went on to question whether the collection included rare editions and if the toy were being kept to back a 'quick buck'. 'Honestly bears have just taken over this place,' he adds before finishing the video by saying 'you can't get away from them'.
