A TERRACED house about to be auctioned off for a bargain price is hiding a disgusting secret.
At first glance the two-bedroomed home in Darlington, Country Durham, is a complete steal with a starting price of £40,000.
The property has high ceilings, an en suite bathroom and two large bedrooms.
But on closer inspection, the house appears to have one truly upsetting addition.
The images, posted in an ad on RightMove, show a strange green substance smeared on the floor of the main bedroom.
Photos taken from inside the property show a huge mossy stain covering the wooden floor of the house.
A small patch also appeared on the wall in the bedroom, with moss and mould also growing in the hallway and second bedroom.
Black mould can also be seen on the ceilings and in the hallway of the property which is in need fo a rejuvenation.
The kitchen and bathroom also appears to be in major disrepair, with wires and pipework exposed in the property.
Auctioneers Allsop describe the property as being located close to Darlington town centre and the hospital, with North Lodge Park also being close by.

And while it has a shower – bizarrely tucked between a wardrobe and a chest of drawers – there’s no toilet to be found.
Elsewhere, a Notting Hill flat is hilariously billed as “spacious” by landlords – even though it doesn’t offer a bed or shower.
Agents describe the bedsit as “fully furnished” in a glowing ad on Gumtree.
However, according to the photos, the flat offers just a fridge, a small hob with two electric rings, a sink and a microwave.
Another home in Central London is so small there’s nowhere for the occupant to sit.
The home is so wee there’s no floorspace for a sofa, while the mattress has been slung atop a wooden frame close to the ceiling.
Tenants face scaling a ladder before crawling under the duvet on their hands and knees.
