Home sweet home — just watch your step!
A house in the UK is ready for a new rightful owner — that is if they’re willing to spend $408,000 and still be able to see through the floors.
A four-bedroom listing in Corby, Northamptonshire does not have a floorboard on the ground floor, meaning potential home buyers can see the concrete foundations below.
But the bedrooms are decently sized, plus two ground-floor bathrooms mean no lines to get ready in the morning.
Communicating with people upstairs right now won’t be an issue either as the second level does not have a floorboard, either.
The fixer-upper also has exposed brickwork and fireplaces — though they are just holes in the wall right now. It does, however, have a large lounge, dining room and kitchen.
But floors would need to be installed in order to fully enjoy the home’s amenities.
A study and utility room can also be found downstairs, but it should be noted that the home’s front door is boarded up. There’s a large, unfenced garden in the backyard, which is overgrown.
“Although, in need of full refurbishment, the potential to restore this home to its former beauty or to develop it further is a rare opportunity, indeed,” the property description reads.

The fireplaces are currently just holes in the wall. Jam Press/Rightmove“Planning permission was granted to extend the home already. The accommodation previously comprised of an entrance hall which gave access to the ground floor W.C., kitchen/utility, lounge, dining room/study/conservatory and to the first it comprised of four bedrooms and a family bathroom.”
“Outside, the garden offers great potential to all sides and would allow for a side/rear extension and also an extension to the rear for further parking,” it continues.
One other caveat? The purchase is for cash-only buyers.
