Three-bed house goes up for sale for £175K in London but it comes with a sad catch

Every photo reveals the reason why the house is up for a cut-price

You may have seen your fair share of odd and sometimes gross houses while watching various 2000s TV shows, but have you known one to exist right around the corner?

Well, people in Isleworth, London, are lucky enough to say that they're within the vicinity of a house that fits into the category.

A three-bedroom house in the area has been put on the market for what looks like an absolute bargain at £175,000 in West London, zone four.

Posted on property listing website Rightmove, it won't take you long to figure out why the house is being listed at a cut-price.

All you need to do is click the arrow on the photo gallery and you'll be in for a nasty shock.

Usually in the capital, you'll take what you can get for cheap property or cost of living, but I can't imagine many lining up to live in this property.

The majority of the photos on the site reveals that the house is absolutely covered in clutter - and no, I don't mean this in a nagging mum way - it is literally filled from floor to ceiling with a number of items.

It looks like it'll take an Indiana Jones-type of adventure to move all the boxes, bin bags and other debris out of the way to see the floor.

The previous owner's belongings have consumed most of the interior, meaning it's what the positive investor calls a 'fixer-upper', and what someone lazy (me) calls 'impossible'.

Every single room photographed is filled to the brim with discarded items, making it look like a near impossible task for anyone that is remotely interested in purchasing the home.

One room looks like a library from a horror film, with old, dusty books stacked up in front of the window to block as much light as possible while covering every exposed surface.

In the bathroom, boxes and old magazines have taken over the bathtub and most of the sink, though if you're like Elastigirl from The Incredibles, I see no reason why you can't wash your hands.

The living room is covered in discarded boxes, a basket, general rubbish and wouldn't you know it, another tower of books up against the wall.

Other rooms in the house follow the same themes, which couldn't be that bad - until you see the kitchen, which is full of dirty dishes, cooking ingredients left open, and what is probably a pungent smell.

The photos have brought the property a negative rep online, as people have made their thoughts known.

One described it as 'sad', before saying: "Very nice house though once it's renovated, and lovely long garden. I bet though it'll fetch more than £175,000."

Another posted: "The issue with this kind of hoarding is it can actually damage the building due to the extreme weight."

The home is expected to be more than the £175,000 valuation slapped on it, as it boasts a location with great transport links, numerous train and tube stations a stone's throw away and the bonus of having schools nearby for families.

If you're interested in viewing the house, they're holding viewings on Friday 3 May and Tuesday 7 May between 1pm - 1.30pm on a walk-in basis.
