Virtually untouched 1970s time capsule home goes on the market for £675,000 in first sale of its kind
In a first of its kind sale, a virtually untouched time capsule home from the 1970s has gone on the market £675,000.
Owned by the same family since it was built, this architect designed four bedroom bungalow acts as a time machine to half a century ago with its vintage design.
The 2,112sq ft home is situated in Oakley, near Basingstoke, with enormous floor-to-ceiling windows which give panoramic views of open farmland.
Having been kept in the same hands for so long, the bungalow still oozes seventies style with chrome armchairs, wood-panelled ceilings, and zig-zag patterned sofas.
The listing describes the property as having a 'minimalist aesthetic' with quirky features such as a circular dining room built beneath a central skylight.
