Summary
The video follows Kay, a potential buyer, as the presenter “swipes right or left” on a Manhattan-loft-style property. While the exposed brick, stonework, and modern finishes charm the eye, serious red flags emerge: questionable fire safety, poor insulation, possible damp, unknown heating, and an exterior that hints at water ingress. The property has also sat empty for years—a warning sign in itself. The verdict? Don’t be blinded by style; weigh the risks before committing.
Highlights
🏠 Loft-style charm with exposed brick and trendy finishes
🚿 Possible water ingress from poor drainage and low thresholds
🔥 Fire safety concerns: repurposed floorboard ceilings, no fire doors
🧱 Solid stone walls with no insulation—cold and costly to heat
❓ Heating system and energy capacity unknown
🕰 Empty for years—may hide deeper problems
Takeaway
This property is a looker but could be a money pit. Before you “swipe right,” get a full survey, check compliance, and plan for upgrades—or walk away.
