A SEEMINGLY normal house has hit the market for £400,000 but it’s hiding a disgusting secret.

Things take a turn for the worse in the four-bed house located in Chippenham, Wiltshire, as soon as you open the door.

From the outside, the detached home is picture-perfect. 

With wide windows and a surrounding garden, it’s easy to imagine life in the property. 

However, everything changes when you open the door. 

Throughout the corridors and the kitchen lie mountains of rubbish.

The layers of trash – which includes old posters and cardboard boxes – are so high that it is difficult to simply pass through the home

However, things take a turn for the worse when you open the door to the bathroom. 

The sink is piled high with washing and the toilet is swamped with overflowing waste. 

Huge cobwebs hang between the walls and a dead plant dangles from the windowsill. 

Advertised on Rightmove , the four-bed home is on sale for £395,000 – despite its shortcomings. 

The house’s description states: “The property comprises a four bedroom detached house arranging over ground and first floors.

“The property requires a program of refurbishment.”

The listing comes after another four-bed home with a secret went on sale in Nottingham. 

Once home to the romantic poet Lord Byron, the Grade-II listed home is on sale for £850,000.

The stunning property even has a plaque on the front of the house dedicated to Byron. 

The influential writer, who was one of the three people on holiday with Mary Shelley when she wrote the gothic classic Frankenstein , lived in the home between the ages of 10 and 12. 

However, the truly amazing parts of the house are hidden underground. 

An incredible series of labyrinthian caves lurk beneath the property.

The underground space has lighting, electricity and heating too allowing you to make good use of the impressive rooms.
