From the street, this Scandinavian-style property looks like a traditional bungalow. But step through the front door and it soon becomes clear the family home is anything but ordinary.

SWNS The brochure says: 'It is fair to say that the property's specification dates from when the house was constructed. Therefore it is fair to report that the subjects would benefit from a programme of modernizing and upgrading to bring the subjects to current standards. 'This will be quite an exciting opportunity as the house commands a rather pleasant, wooded outlook to the rear, across its large back garden which is very well established and planted with a great many specimen trees and shrubs, although this too will require some work.' Housing experts say they admire the property's retro charm and have given a more favorable view of the property, with one saying the 'uber cool' fixtures deserved to be restored and preserved for posterity.
