A TWO-bedroomed terraced home has gone on sale for a bargain £125,000 – but it appears to tell a creepy tale.
The house in Primrose Hill, Lancaster, has stunning views overlooking the Lake District – but the ones inside have been compared to a sinister crime scene which might scare potential buyers off.
One image shows a camera creepily positioned on a chair pointed at another seat.
In another, there are disturbing red marks smeared all over the bathroom wall.
A third eerie snap taken looking down the steps to the basement shows a solitary child’s chair in the corner at the bottom of the stairs.
The listing on the property website Rightmove reads: “Based over three floors in the desirable area of Primrose Hill, south Lancaster, overlooking the Lake District with the university, Williamson Park at the top of the street and the city centre at the lower just a short walk.
“This property is ideal for young families, city centre workers/commuters or as a university shared house, being within size regulations for conversion to a three-bed student house making investment highly sought after.
“Benefits from a sunny garden and usable on-street or rear off-street parking.”
The ad goes on to say that the property is “considerably larger than the other two-bed terraces” in the “desirable” area.
It continues: “Spread over three floors, high ceilings, two double bedrooms, a large lounge, a kitchen diner, and a large 6ft high dry cellar room with a window.

“The property is of sound external/structural condition, however requires internal modernisation as reflected in the lower than normal asking price for the area.”
Bizarrely in the bedroom, the current resident has put his shorts on clothes hangers while also using a mini deckchair as a pair of curtains.
A huge picture of the Brooklyn Bridge lies next to a camera set up on a chair, while the garden is made more colourful by prayer flags.
Meanwhile in the kitchen, there is a bizarre selection of super-sized pictures hanging from the walls.
One person who saw the home on Rightmove said: “I don’t know what happened in that bathroom but I suspect someone didn’t survive it.”
She added: “To make it worse, this house was up on Rightmove for months with only pictures of the outside so it could’ve actually been a crime scene that they weren’t allowed to enter.
“Living under a bridge should not be more tempting than a house, Lancaster.
“The camera set up on a chair facing another chair is also giving hostage vibes, wtf.”
