Inside home frozen in time with bright retro kitchen not touched for 50 years

Some home décor trends are timeless, but other trends come back into fashion – and many people love the way retro styling looks.

A house in Doncaster is tricking people with its relatively plain-looking exterior – but inside it looks 'frozen in time' and boasts an amazing kitchen that doesn't appear to have been touched since the 1960s.

But it's not putting people off – with prospective house hunters saying they wouldn't change the unique interior. They have dubbed the semi detached property "so retro it's in style again"

The old fashioned kitchen appears to not have been touched for at least 50 years, and has wooden walls, retro benches, mid century units and kooky orange tiles.

The house in the South Yorkshire city also boasts a funky bright green bathroom, which people have said they would keep if they bought the property, which is for sale for £140,000.

A description by agents Robinson Hornsby on Rightmove reads: "Situated in the sought after location of Sprotbrough and being close to all local amenities is this spacious two bedroom semi detached property.

"Offering excellent potential and standing on a good size plot the accommodation briefly comprises a spacious kitchen diner."

It continues: "From the kitchen diner is access to attached greenhouse and living room leading to the hallway.

"To the first floor are two generous size bedrooms, the main bedroom with built-in cupboard and the bathroom.

"The large rear garden is mainly lawned, garage and large driveway providing ample parking for a number of vehicles. An early viewing is highly recommended."

Adding to the appeal of the property, is that there is no chain – meaning it is ready to be snapped up.

It turns out house hunters are big fans of the property, with one person commenting: "The interior is pretty much a museum piece at this point."

Another said: "This is what people who follow mid century tags on Instagram want their house to look like."

A third commented: "Someone really loved that house, it's immaculate,," while another joked: "So retro that it is in style again!"

Some say they wouldn't change anything (Rightmove/Robinson Hornsby/Triangle News)

Many agreed they wouldn't change much about the property, with one person saying: "I'd definitely keep the kitchen sofa and cladding, it's so cool."

Another agreed: "I would leave so much of this just as it is. Took us years to find nice quality 60s wooden furniture."
