Property is located in Henley-on-Thames, Oxon. Painted the unusual colour in June last year by owner Emma Wallace-MadeleyA four-bedroom terrace has left house hunters divided after its owners painted the exterior dark grey.
The house is a short distance from the town centre and boasts four bedrooms, three storeys, and an open-plan kitchen diner, as well as an enclosed garden and parking space. 'The open-plan double reception room, with engineered wooden floor throughout, has a sitting room to the front with a bay window and a brick feature wall.
The decision to paint the house, which is located in a conservation area, upset locals, with one claiming that 'some homeowners do not understand the meaning & need of conservation.' Under the Article 4 Directive, the local planning authority can require individuals or developers to obtain planning permission for specific types of development that would otherwise be permitted under the general regulations.
