I especially liked the fact that the kitchen is described as being 'snazzy'

Well, the decor is rubbish - but the house itself beats nine kinds of hell out of the average home in my area. (Not that Walsall has ever been a great place for real estate...)

So no, I wouldn't say this is the worst I've seen. In fact, once you've looked past the decor and the bizarre exterior, you begin to realise that it's pretty damn good.

It just needs a bit of warmth to make it more liveable - which could be mostly achieved by a lick of paint here and there.
