'I found stunning £115k house for sale – one unusual feature put me off'

A two-bedroom home in Northwich, Cheshire, has gone viral on social media due to one unusual feature, and house hunters are divided about what they think it is for

When house hunting, people usually consider the property's location, bedroom count, and curb appeal. However, for those with an insatiable need for power outlets, a peculiar semi-detached home has become the talk of social media.

This unique property, boasting around 100 plug sockets scattered throughout its rooms, has no fewer than 25 in the living room alone. It has captured the attention of users online after being featured in an Instagram video by @housinghorrors_.

The two-bedroom house is situated on Manchester Road in Northwich, Cheshire. The voiceover in the video can't hide his astonishment: "I've never seen so many plug sockets inside a house in my entire life.

"When I first saw this listing, I nearly spat out my tea."

"I'm sorry but how many plug sockets do they want. Maybe the owner was an electrician or there was a discount on plug sockets at B&Q."

The tour continues as he reveals the sheer volume of plug sockets in the living room, kitchen, and bedrooms, expressing his bewilderment at the discovery.

Listed on Rightmove with a price tag of £115,000, the property certainly stands out.

He concludes: "One thing I will say is it's annoying not having enough plug sockets but I do think this is a little bit too many. All in all, a very unusual property."

A commenter on the Instagram post speculated: "Probably used to be an office and had lots of computers and monitors."

Another user chimed in, excited about the possibilities: "This would be perfect for me with my fish tanks and reptile tanks omg. Heaven."

A third commenter shared their enthusiasm: "I'd be so happy with that never enough plugs."

Yet another added a humorous take: "If it's not a grow house it's reptile or fish keepers."

One person related to the struggle, saying: "You should see my extension cord setups... This looks a fab solution."

An additional comment came from someone with a unique interest: "My weird addiction – plug sockets."

And finally, one user pointed out a potential downside: "Electricity bill is gonna be more than £115k a year."
