Shear madness! House swallowed by hedging on sale for £45,000 (and wait until you see inside!)
A house swallowed up by a mass of hedges and plants is for sale with a guide price of £45,000.
Nature has truly thrived in the garden of a Merseyside property, as vines and weeds have wrapped themselves around the three-bedroom home.
The unruly shrubbery seems to have taken over the back of the house and completely filled the garden.
Plants managed to climb onto the tiled roof and flood the windows of the property, which was described as ‘in need of complete renovation and cleaning’.
Overrun by bushes: three-bedroom house in Merseyside has a guide price of £45,000
The front of the property, pictured, also has a thick layer of ivy starting to creep up the walls
Plants have managed to climb onto the tiled roof and flood the windows. Even the fencing is completely submerged in a thick layer of bright green leaves.
Even the fencing is completely submerged in a thick layer of bright green leaves.
It appears the front of the property has boarded up windows and a thick layer of ivy can be seen starting to creep up the wall and is already covering a window.
The end-terrace property is described as having ‘lots of potential’ and a ‘renovation project’.
Photos on Rightmove show the inside of the house, with large cobwebs in some rooms and items piled on the floors.
Some responded to the home being posted online, one Reddit user said: ‘The next door seems to have a challenging response. ‘We have seen what plants can do. I don’t have any of that.”
Another added: ‘I didn’t even notice the house was covered for a minute or so.’
Someone else said: ‘This house definitely wins the hide-and-seek it’s playing.’
Another commented: ‘It’s too late. The house now belongs to the spiders.’
Someone else joked about the mass of foliage: “If we remove it, could we change the amount of oxygen in our atmosphere?”
A spokesperson for The Online Auction Company said: ‘The property is currently one of the cheapest terraced houses available on Rightmove.
‘With so much potential, the average properties in this area sell for between £180,000 and £200,000, giving every potential buyer so much space.’

A similar one Earlier this year, property was also put up for sale after trees and ivy were allowed to grow unchecked for forty years.
The terraced property at the end of King’s Norton, Birmingham, has become virtually invisible after disappearing under a blanket of thick foliage in recent decades.
Not even the chimney can be seen because the front yard is so overrun with plants and a mass of greenery has spread over almost the entire front of the house.
Local residents say the three-bedroom house has been a blot on the landscape for decades after the ‘nature-loving’ homeowner failed to prune the plants.
