Britain's ‘darkest ever house' with all-black walls, toilet & furniture hits market for bargain sum.. could you hack it?

The Suna day ago

A HOME dubbed the "blackest house ever" is up for sale - and it could be yours for £375k.
The property, located in Swinton, Manchester, is described as "a unique home that offers significant accommodation and generous outside space rarely found in homes within this price bracket."

But what makes the house truly stand out is its design — both the interior and exterior are entirely black.
On the outside, the property features black walls, doors, gates, and a black garage.
On the inside, it has black furniture, black radiators, and even an all-black toilet.
Sharing the property on TikTok, user @housinghorror described it as "the blackest house [he] had ever seen".
He said: "Some people are going to absolutely love this decor.
"But I feel it's going to be a controversial one as we don't usually see these black houses that often."
The owner is clearly a fan of the colour — listing photos show two black cars, a black drum set, and a wardrobe full of black clothing.
They've even added black finishing touches to the home — including a painting of a black dog and a sculpture of a black panther.
The home is set over two floors and comprises an entrance hall, lounge, open plan dining room, a fully-fitted kitchen, and three large double bedrooms.
There are various outbuildings that include a gym, office, play room, and store room - and the home has a detached double garage.
Stunning Gothic mansion made famous on BBC's Home of the Year up for sale... and it has very famous links
The property is situated within a private gated plot and has a large back garden - which offers "excellent space for relaxing and children's play".
The listing continues: "The location is within easy access to many local shops and amenities and is well placed for renowned primary and secondary schooling.
"It is also ideal for access to major transport links making it ideal for those looking to commute into Manchester and across the North West.
"This is a unique home that offers significant accommodation and generous outside space rarely found in homes within this price bracket.
"As such, an early internal viewing is strongly advised to avoid disappointment."
The owner is looking for offers in the region of £375,000 - buyers can find the listing here.
It comes after a property developer was forced to put a derelict hotel on sale for just £1 after pumping £3.2 million into its restoration.
And a unique five-bedroom detached house with a special bathroom has hit the market for £700k - would you put in an offer?

Drake ‘gives away' he'll be joined by US superstar rapper at Wireless festival next week

RAPPER DRAKE has dropped a huge hint that he's set to be joined by US superstar Nicki Minaj at Wireless next month. The One Dance hitmaker, 38, will be headlining all three nights of the London's Finsbury Park for his first full UK performances in six years. 4 4 4 The huge North London Festival will take place on Friday July 11, Saturday July 12 and Sunday July 13. Drake will headline the main stage each evening in a deal thought to be worth millions. And now the Hotline Bling singer has hinted fellow rapper Nicki will also be joining him on stage. Drake took to Instagram on Monday and shared a throwback photo of Nicki. But he failed to caption the picture behind posting it, which has left fans guessing if the Starships singer is set to join him at the festival. Drake and Nicki have often teamed up for collaborations together - including their hit track Moment 4 Life and Needle. They have also surprised each other over the years with appearances at each other's gigs. So the duo taking to the stage together next month may not be far off. It follows last year's festival which was headlined by Nicki Minaj, 21 Savage, J Hus and Doja Cat. A source said: "It's been months in the making and initially no one thought they could pull it off, but Drake is all signed on to headline all three days of Wireless. "Bosses are naturally overjoyed and expect tickets to sell out in record time. "Exact set lists are still to be worked out but one idea that has been passed about is that Drake will perform some of his albums in full for the first time." In February Drake teamed up with PartyNextDoor to release collaboration album $ome $exy $ongs 4 U. On the 21-track album, Drake takes a swipe at his haters and "rap beef" in the industry. On Gimme A Hug he rages: "They be dropping s*** but we dropping harder s***. F*** a rap beef, I'm tryna get the party lit. "Tryna get the party lit for the b****es." Drake last toured the UK in 2019, playing seven nights at London's O2 Arena as part of his Assassination Vacation Tour. In 2021, Drake made a surprise appearance on night one of Wireless Festival - popping up during Future's set. 4

Steve Coogan reprises Alan Partridge alter-ego while opening his own SOUND BATH as he joins Charlotte Hawkins and Anthea Turner at Hampton Court Palace Garden Festival

Steve Coogan reprised his iconic Alan Partridge alter-ego as he celebrated the opening of his very own sound bath at the Hampton Court Palace Garden Festival on Monday. A far cry from the straight-laced tone of the inept broadcaster, Alan was on hand to present the opening of his own space, struggling to keep cool in the hot weather. The garden reflected the inept presenter's 'meticulous approach to design, aesthetics, and materials' and is described as being 'a tribute to structure, to durability, and to personal resonance.' The RHS invited visitors 'to experience a space that is both purposeful and forward-looking.' It's no surprise that the garden comes with a unique comedic twist, and the character's observations about his creation are channelled through sound waves. Designers Joe and Laura said: 'We have had a test-run of the garden during the pre-build stage, and the moment we heard Alan's voice come through the sculptural speakers - everything made sense, in a very funny, very Alan sort of way.' Alan appeared to be up to his usual antics as he was photographed speaking into a seemingly non-existent mic and fanning himself with headphones on. The designers admitted: 'We developed the idea that Alan would want to showcase his broadcasting mastery... ' Also in attendance at the garden festival on Monday were presenters Anthea Turner, 65, and Charlotte Hawkins, 50. They were a vision in bright floral colours as they took in some of the many displays at the show, which is running from July 1 to 6. The pair were all smiles as they posed with flowers from the exhibits, with this year's show featuring a new Gardens of Curiosity category - designed to be interactive and thought-provoking for visitors. Anthea stunned in a patterned pink dress, keeping herself cool in the UK's ongoing heatwave with a straw hat. Charlotte similarly wore a bright orange dress, adding a touch of glamour to the look with gold jewellery. Steve's appearance at the Alan Partridge Sound Garden comes after he recently admitted that the character became an albatross around his neck over time. Speaking to Nick Grimshaw and Angela Hartnett for the seventh season of their Dish from Waitrose Podcast, he said: 'There was a time when I felt saddled with it. 'So, when I do Partridge, I do it through choice. Not because I have to.' 'I'm doing some stuff at the moment, and it does make me laugh, so… I make notes in my phone. 'I think, I have a funny idea, I'm on the train and I'm chuckling to myself. I will laugh at myself as a Partridge comes into my head, and put it in my phone, on my own. 'Or I'll look in a shop window and think about, I might say, "oh, what would Alan say about that. I'm still doing it now thirty years later, so it's like a condition now.' Steve's career-defining character earned him no less than six awards - the most recent coming in 2017 at the TV BAFTA's, where Alan Partridge's Scissored Isle secured Best Male Comedy Performance for the actor.
