A family home has hit the market – but it looks like a 1970s time warp

The four-bedroom detached house appears unassuming from the front with an ordinary-looking driveway.

But inside the new homeowner will be transported back in time to the groovy decade with its retro interior.

Estate agents admit it “does require some updating.”

The living room is kitted out with geometric carpet and curtains along with characteristic dark oak furniture.

The kitchen has mustard kitchen cabinets and apricot tiles – a popular colour scheme half a decade ago.

The wooden panelling on the ceiling matches the dark oak dining table – a classic piece of furniture from the time.

The next room has a wall entirely made from cork tiles and continues the mustard theme with curtains.

It is also littered with mid-century lounge armchairs – another popular furnishing in the decade.

The bedrooms, at the property in Yateley, Hampshire have original patterned wallpaper.

The bathroom has its original bath and tiles but has a more relaxed colour scheme.

The house is described needing “some updating” but some 70s fans may want to leave the decor exactly as it is.

The property – known as The Oaks – is a four-minute drive from a Waitrose and half an hour away from nearby town Reading.

It is currently on the market with Seymours Estate Agents for £450,000 and advertised on Rightmove.

The property description reads: “Brought to the market with no onward chain and tucked away in a popular close in Yateley this spacious four-bedroom home benefits from three reception rooms and an integral garage.

“The property offers the incoming purchaser the chance to put their own stamp on it as it does require some updating.

“To the rear of the house is a mature and enclosed rear garden. To the front of the house is driveway parking.”
