A family home with a rather odd bathroom-cum-kitchen set-up has left prospective buyers “flabbergasted”.
The three-bedroom pad, in Brislington, Bristol, appears perfectly ordinary from the outside, and much of the home looks pleasant and welcoming.
But an open-plan utility room has been oddly laid out with a toilet plonked in it, alongside more typical kitchen appliances and items.

The room is home to the washing machine, a fridge-freezer, a sink, and even a coffee machine laid out on a cabinet and plugged in ready for use.
But despite food and drink being stored there, there is no partition separating the space from the toilet.
The room has been described as the “utility/downstairs WC”.
The listing images were shared on social media, where viewers were left “flabbergasted” by the arrangement, as reported by Luxury Property News.
One person commented: “I get that’s a utility room but… Imagine having your fridge in a windowless room where someone just had a rough time on the throne. Or your washing. Either settle for one toilet or put a small cubicle in.”
“This new trend of open plan s***ters has to stop,” another joked.
Someone else wrote: “That’s got to be breaking some health and safety regulations surely?”
“Oh that’s grim, and right next to a kettle and stuff. Imagine how many airborne poop particles are in that fridge and cooking area,” commented another viewer.
Thankfully, the rest of the terraced home looks perfectly ordinary, with three bedrooms, a spacious lounge, a dining room, kitchen which opens out onto the back garden, and a full family bathroom upstairs.
It is currently on the market for £400,000 with Moving You.
