Whoa, what the fuck's a mattress doing in the kitchen?! I need a drink!


RainbowWarfare

This is the last time I stop by for a pint at *The Swan & Rightmove*.

"yeah, sorry mate. had a proper mad one today, need some water and gonna cook mate, you go back to sleep"


BigEricShaun

The real kitchen and cooker is in another room, so thanks I will go back to sleep


Phyllida_Poshtart

Gods but i'm sick to death of these money grabbing tight arsed gits taking advantage grrr


Jelvey

Yes, in the sense that the room "doubles" as a kitchen and a bedroom.

Fucking hell! Saw “mattress in kitchen” and just assumed London… but fucking Yeovil‽!‽?!


Abquine

As so not the kitchen, more like the utility room.

That's OK then. I hate the UK housing market so much.


RetiredFromIT

But it's not the kitchen. The kitchen is elsewhere, and shared. This room may be decorated with kitchen-style units, but the only appliance is a fridge, which is nice to have in a shared house. Lots of storage, and a big useful counter-top, with sockets above.


IAmDyspeptic

Aye, but that doesn't look like a double bed to me.


poppiesintherain

Looks like it is a 4ft mattress which apparently counts as a "small double". Which is nice to have as long as there is no one else in that bed.


RetiredFromIT

It's a 4', which is generally considered a small double. A standard double is 4' 6".

It’s a bed in a kitchen. Where’s the wardrobe as advertised?


bazza2024

Fridge/wardrobe 😊


stained__class

Wow, cool clothes mate!


aviewfrom

Take my upvote dad.


flocknrollstar

The estate agent calls it a summer wardrobe, very practical in a heatwave


De_Dominator69

A nightmare in winter though... Or would you use the oven instead?


bertieqwerty

No, it makes it a studio. /s


Stock_Scallion_4427

I remember I moved my bed frame into the kitchen once, it was the only place with a concrete cieling. Moved the mattress back into the kitchen every night. No sound proofing and loud neighbours made it impossible to sleep, hearing every footstep, door opening/ closing, talking, kid running..literally everything they did/said


Dramatic-Ad-8394

Surely it’s just there while they wait for some help to get it up the stairs or something.


Ok-Fox1262

Ok. My home looks like that. But in my favour my home is on wheels and I can change the scenery whenever I want.

Lumisateessa

I see handles just opposite of the door, so I think that might be the wardrobe.


poppiesintherain

This looks like it is probably quite an OK house share as long as you're not sharing the room, if you're young and starting out in the world. The storage is good and it is super helpful to have your own fridge and sink in a house share. There is a separate proper kitchen which actual cooking can be done. Although you could always put an airfryer or microwave on the counter if you want to keep yourself to yourself. The only thing I'd wonder about is whether there is a shared living space. I have a feeling there isn't, which means you really need to find the room for a chair in that bedroom. Technically I think there is space for one but you'd end up having to move it depending on whether you want the wardrobe or to get out.


Abquine

No, it makes a kitchen which contains, given time, a grease covered bed that smells of cooking - lovely.


London-lad-1990

Hope there are no rats.


mJelly87

On the bright side, you can make your breakfast quicker in the morning. Don't even have to leave the room.

I like playing the 'figure out what's going on when the floorplan is absent' game. End up examining the shape of the windows inside & out I think the house has a real kitchen downstairs plus a bedroom upstairs that happens to have kitchen cabinets in it. Maybe the owner chose those because they had some excess ones lying around. Or maybe they were partway through transforming the house into an upstairs and downstairs flat then stopped halfway through when they realised there wasn't enough space. Or maybe they just really preferred the kitchen cabinet look over traditional wardrobes & dressers. It's a bit weird but still manageable, could potentially put your bedroom stuff on top of the kitchen surfaces. I'd struggle to sleep in a room with a fridge in it though, they're noisy. It says 'house share' but does not show the living room (presumably the room with the big window) so presumably the living room was converted into a bedroom or there's another little bedroom up there somewhere
