That Victorian living room is something to behold. Too cluttered with disconnected large, overstuffed furniture. I wonder how they navigate? They need to edit about half of it plus the huge painting.

Too much stuff!!! I wouldn't be able to breathe in that house.

It's a bit much but I LOVE IT! Thanks for taking me someplace fun for a few moments (in my mind). Sadly, I opened my eyes and I'm back to reality. lol.

Isn't that a bummer?!

@stevieb Yes, it really IS a bummer. Aside from the beautiful home, I'd love to be on that grass with those sheep right now. My dog would love it too!

It's a no for me.....not my style and even if it were, there's far too many items in each room.

The sheep are adorable though!

I like it but a few pieces of furniture needs to be removed.

I like the room in the last photo. Looks like it might be a casual den space? The sheep are cute. The rest is too formal and cluttered for me.

Beautiful house, but the furnishings aren't to my taste. Too cluttered and too many different colors. Is the color palette a box of 64 Crayola Crayons?

I like it all except for the guard around the fireplace, but I bet the cats would love it.

I love the outside of it but the inside is not my style. I'm sure they are quite comfy but I'm way more country cottage style.

Not my style, but I have enjoyed really looking at this place. Too busy, would make me nervous and yet it is so very quaint and I like qualnt. But, I especially like the two paintings, in particular the one above the fireplace.

Too formal and too cluttered for me, too much stuff. The last room is ok -minus the two chairs in front of the fireplace. I never understood putting furniture in front of the fireplace, isn't that supposed to be the focal point?

Really like the beige picture frame with the gilt edging (referring to the frame only, not the painting) - it relates well to similarly colored items in the room, such as the curtains, the touches of beige and gold showing through the dark blue fireplace surround, and some of the metals. Also like the beige curtains with the blue lining. And the sheep.

I like the house from the outside and the bucolic setting. But the inside? Sensory overload!

So much furniture and other "stuff". I mean how many bouquets of flowers and plants do you need in one room? And it's almost as if they couldn't decide on what colors or patterns they liked, so just threw in a bit of everything.

The small table with yet another vase of flowers on the stairway landing is an accident waiting to happen, IMO.

And they must like BIG pictures because there's one in both the first and last photos.

The final room shown at least looks like somewhere I could breathe.

I love, love, love this and could move in and feel that it was where I should be.

I like it. It's quirky; I'm quirky. Perfect.
