Three-bed home 'frozen in 1970s' with orange sofas, frosted glass and shag rugs
This three-bedroom family home is like stepping back in time the moment you walk though the front door.
The property in Parbold, West Lancashire, is fitted out with orange sofas, wooden wall cabinets and thick shag carpets reminiscent of interior design from the 1970s.
It was put on the market with estate agents The Modern House, which described it as a "wonderfully preserved modern house, built in 1968 and is thought to have been designed by the late architect Anthony Grimshaw", last year
The one-of-a-kind home was valued at £475,000 and proved popular thanks to the quirky design and throwback features.

The main living room is decorated with a long, four-seat orange sofa in front of a matching coffee table and wooden wall unit, with two leather chairs at the far end to take in the views from the floor to ceiling windows.
The room opens up into a dining area with brass panelling, stonework and a period light fitting, with a frosted glass door and windows separating it from the kitchen.
The open plan living area joins to the dining room (Regan and Hallworth Estate Agents)White cabinets and wood countertops in the kitchen look like they have come straight from the pages of a 1970s cookbook, with plates used to decorate the glass wall.
In the bathroom, there's dark marble effect tiling, with gold taps, a gold shower head, and white fittings.
It's the first time the home has been on the open market (Regan and Hallworth Estate Agents)The listing on The Modern Home website read: "Occupying a quiet, elevated position in the sought-after village of Parbold, internal accommodation of just over 1,800 sq ft is set over three storeys, with living areas arranged across the upper levels drawing on fantastic views across the treetops.
"Reaching the open market for the first time in over forty years, Beech Hill is replete with original details and offers great scope for further renovation. Situated on the edge of the South West Lancashire plain, the house is surrounded by rolling countryside, skirted by the meandering River Douglas.
The home is bursting with character (Regan and Hallworth Estate Agents)"The architectural profile of the house is characterised by its striking asymmetry and cantilevered, glass-fronted façade, protruding from its leafy backdrop to maximise the views and excellent natural light.
"A private driveway leads up to a large double, electric garage and the primary entrance; a glass-fronted hall set beneath the under croft."
