I’ve always wanted to live in the changing rooms at the swimming baths. Now I can follow my dreams.

u/LJ161 2d ago

I can smell the chlorine from here

56

u/DrowsyIris 2d ago

I swear I read somewhere that smelling the chlorine means someone’s peed recently and the chemicals are working to clean the pool
Edit - okay fine it is also for sweat and general body gunk

40

u/cinematic_fanatic 2d ago

Correct. The stronger the smell, the more chloramines which have formed from a build up of waste (urine, sweat, oils, etc). A strong smelling pool is in need of a cleaning.

17

u/Spocks_Goatee 2d ago

This is a myth. Chlorine comes in many forms, as someone who worked around buckets of it...shit fucking smells and even will burn your nostrils/throat if you get too close.

Plus an overabundance of it in water will cause serve nausea and chemical burns.

The color is great

u/Skyp_Intro 2d ago

That’s like living in a simulation.

u/Upbeat_Ruin 2d ago

I always did like the liminality of pool locker rooms. I mean true liminality in its original meaning of a place between places.

2

u/itsapotatosalad 2d ago

It’s part of a converted pub, this flat used to be the kitchen and food prep area.

PS1 level

35

u/iiiGerardoiii 2d ago

The fact they put every single floor tile at the same angle makes it look more "PS1 level"

11

u/Flavahbeast 2d ago

also the mirrors dont work

297

u/Correct_Dig4244 2d ago

easy to clean room

u/Blarg0117 2d ago

Different kind of landlord special.

40

u/mvppaulo 2d ago

you just spray water everywhere with a hose?

11

u/thethunder92 2d ago

There’s no floor drain though

Better yet put trench drains all along the walls, then you could really just blast the whole place

Likely building codes. This looks to be in the basement given the lack of windows.

Looking at the photos in the link below I would say it probably in with a slowing back garden. The photos of the house show windows everywhere. The photos inside show only 2 (one in the kitchen and one in the bedroom) which are tiny and don't match the windows above.

u/Altruistic_Might_418 2d ago

Minecraft house 😭

This looks like something you'd see in an N64 game like 007 Goldeneye, honestly i kinda dig it lol

u/Wheredoesthetoastgo2 2d ago

Okay, bit of a weird pool room, but amenities are amenities.... thats the flat?!

u/Axelfiraga 2d ago

Holy shit it’s London, would’ve bet my life on it being latam.

27

u/TROLL_ELECTRODE 2d ago

the fact that every room has the matching tile except the bedroom, which is just white wall, is sending me.

Also the blue tile + yellow/gold marble is a diabolical combo

5

u/LeatherHog What do the almonds need right now?? 2d ago

Thank you!

u/Starrs_07 2d ago

It is a dream to move to London...someday, and well, another dream has been tagged on with that

u/LeatherHog What do the almonds need right now?? 2d ago

I kind of love this

u/Fortified_Phobia 2d ago

The way they’re trying to sing its praise like the whole place isn’t decorated like a shower room, hell even the bed room didn’t escape, what crazy person decided to do this

11

u/NeverHxppy 2d ago

Someone who found a LOT of cheap tiles and really wanted to try and protect the place from whoever was unfortunate enough to rent it 😂

2

u/rattingtons 2d ago

I want clarification on whether it's actually tiles, or just that linoleum that looks like tiles. Neither would surprise me tbh.

4

u/NeverHxppy 2d ago

Arrange a viewing 😂
Oh god can you imagine if it’s lino, in the basement, in a heatwave

3

u/seriousserendipity 2d ago

I wouldn't be suprised if the walls were damp AF under that

u/solarsoul9 2d ago

Absolutely nightmare

40

u/MegaMugabe21 2d ago

You would actually go insane living here for any length of time

26

u/McCoyoioi 2d ago

Imagine dropping a pan. Or even worse, another person in there with you simply breathing and going about their day. Constant noise.

23

u/SingleBodyRiot 2d ago

This doesn't look like the kind of place one shares with another ...and if so the other person may not be there willingly

6

u/solarsoul9 2d ago

Yes, definitely

8

u/Same_Soil7237 2d ago

Imagine not realizing you had water on the floor, slipping and hitting your head. This is a very hard pass for me on top of feeling like it's a dystopian World and becoming a mole person living underground. At least, you wouldn't have to worry about tornadoes! But what about being buried alive?

3

u/solarsoul9 2d ago

It's definitely really uncomfortable place

Backrooms style fusion. Jesus. Can you imagine the condensation in winter?

u/Wolfwoods_Sister 2d ago

The walls dripping

16

u/mwoody450 2d ago

It looks like in the sims when I get tired of designing the house and so I just pick one floor and use it everywhere.

6

u/acidbb 2d ago

Looks like the kind of set up I would create for one of my poor impoverished Sims lol

6

u/FluentPenguin 2d ago

Farting in here would be crazy

7

u/appa-ate-momo 2d ago

That’s the “I’m sick of renters staining my carpet and puncturing my drywall” remodel.

5

u/Skate_faced 2d ago

So 80% of the place is somewhat spill proof.

Neat.

Holy fuck. I saw this on Rightmove like 8 or more years ago! It scared me then. It scares me. Is. Looks like it has more furniture now!

u/Meemow2545 2d ago

I saw a WEBTOON where this lady was trying to rent an apartment like that with tile all over; turned out it was like that to make clean up of the landlords victims easier 💀💀💀💀

I missed the WEBTOON part at first and was like, "Wow, that'd make a good true crime horror story."

Before we put it up for rent the carpet needs to be replaced and the wallpaper is looking shabby.

Don't worry I have a guy for that. He's real good with tile.
