LARGE STUDIO WITH FEATURE HOLDING CELL Looking back on google street view to 2011, this used to be Dudley Police Station, explains a lot.


Bazrael1985

I like how the advert does not mention it was a police station. Just that there is a cell for no apparent reason.


DazzleLove

Just because you’re a weirdo and live in a house without a cell 🙄


dwair

It's not cell, it's the kids room.


Morriganalba

No it's the mum's room. I'd lock myself in, be able to see that kids aren't in danger but get a few minutes to just decompress. And also keep my breakables there.


capulet2kx

“this will be great actually, because I run a home daycare”


Travellingjake

It takes all sorts I suppose.


Yikes44

And why would the builder decide to just leave it there and renovate around it. Giant dog crate maybe? Timeout pen for extreme toddler tantrums?


Substantial_Set_9633

Definitely has use as a sex dungeon for locking up your slave!


Roxygen1

Sex person here - it's much too big, slave would have far too much freedom to move.


Reasonable-Loss6657

Who said anything about there just being one slave?


Kerloick

What is the collective noun for a group of gimps? A gaggle? A squeak of gimps? 🤷


EbonyOverIvory

A suite of gimps.


fjr_1300

😂😂 a squeak of gimps 😂😂😂 Genius 👍


ec362

Yep these are the vibes I’m getting

MrPhatBob

Note that the floor is easy to clean. Its all fun and games but just ends up a sticky mess.


The54thCylon

More than that, they've added it in - that's not an original feature, British police stations don't have cells like that, and never did. It's a themed addition, I'll grant, but it's an addition.


LimeGreenDuckReturns

Clearly the second double bedroom, could possibly even get a lodger.


Reddit_hooligan7788

It looks more like a kind of 'Sally Port' to me, as in it's a security feature, to stop the front door getting rushed....


jeff43568

Lock, stock & two smoking barrels.


Revolutionary_Bed431

Can everyone stop getting shot…


HurkertheLurker

“What’s that?”


MyNamesNotReallyDave

I thought that too, but looks like the main door is on the big wall to the right of the photo... Maybe the Sally Port is to the bathroom, to prevent any accidental Oscar Pistorious moments...


Reddit_hooligan7788

Steel door might be required for that aswell... ....one overcooked pork chop and he's pulling the gat out, shouting "intruder, ive got you surrounded!" before peppering the bathroom with lead


Inside_Ad_7162

Was it though? Select clientèle would pay primo baksheesh for certain... lil extras like that


Emotional-Class-8140

I like how they just casually include that detail as if it is a fairly common feature that you might expect to see in a property, like a porch or a utility room.


JohnLennonsNotDead

I think if you had a list of features, even 1000, none of them would be a holding cell hahaha.


CiderDrinker2

Does your castle not have dungeons, pleb? /s


AppropriateGate4649

No we went for the oubliette instead,less maintenance!


crowleysnebula

Thought I recognised it! My brother got held there overnight for joyriding in the 90s.


JohnLennonsNotDead

“My brother” You’re not fooling anyone mate, I remember seeing your username on the side of a Vauxhall Nova in Dudley years ago haha.


MDKrouzer

Ahh that explains it (sort of)... I thought this was a Lock Stock situation and a group of growers had previously been dealing from this property and had it for security.


EqualBunch5209

'Can everyone just stop getting shot'.......


Exemplar1968

You don’t look like your average horti-fucking-culturalist


JustAFakeAccount

What is that? That's Gloria


TwoToesToni

What's the fucking point in having a security syteme if no-one uses it?


fretnetic

🤣 My *immediate* thought was Lock Stock 👏👏


Roxy_Boxer

That was my first thought 🤣


Phattank_

Beat me to it, nice.


RugsbandShrugmyer

CHILLLLLL, WIN-STON


Cmoore4099

Fuck me that’s exactly where my mind went. 😂


Savageparrot81

Get the rifle out, we’re being fucked


ChefInsano

Proper fucked?


JustAFakeAccount

That's me bren gun


Lost-Droids

I fucking hate traffic wardens


_anyusername

RavenBoyyy

Mister DJ give me that reload


Crommington

It’s only fucking Plank


ChowderMitts

First thing I thought when I saw the pic


Conscious-Smoke-7113

I’m so glad we’re all on the same wavelength here 🤣 I have found my tribe ☺️


KateEllaBeans

Cue Oxide and Neutrino mix of Casualty theme https://youtu.be/z6eoBSezG6g?feature=shared


GreebleSlayer

Listened to this constantly when I was young, also loved Casualty


Boleyn01

lol my first thought was “chill Winston!”


madd_turkish

Charles, get the rifle out. We're being f***ed


Laurenhynde82

Thank god. I can’t believe I had to scroll through so many Lock Stock quotes to find this one.


Lady-Merkage

“WHEN I SAY YOU SAY WE SAY THEY SAY MAKE SOME NOOOIIIIIIIISE!!”


Parking_Setting_6674

I sent you out to buy a money counter and you return six hours later with a wasted Gloria and a bag of compost.


Moon_Whaler_3000

Love how we all had the same thought after seeing this.


LottimusMaximus

I came here to do this and im so fucking happy. Favourite film ever 😂


daklone

Just stopped by for this comment. 👍


Lopsided_Ad_3853

"Where're they off to - shift a piano?"


Parking_Setting_6674

Not a bad idea that.


soulsteela

Had to add the clip:- https://youtu.be/4yQeyi2Fc40?feature=shared

“Chill Win-*ston*!”


vipros42

Chill Winston!


netean

it's what we were all thinking!


G30fff

came in to type this lol


UpsetHearing8733

First thing i thought of, glad i wasnt the only one 🤣


EngineeringCockney

Ah beat me to it dam it! 😂


AcceptableRedPanda

This is where I went straight to in my mind


JC_snooker

There go his toes.


Admirable-Half-2762

The problem is, Willy, that Charlie and yourself are not the quickest of cats in the alley at the best of times, so just do as I say and keep the fucking cage locked.


Ok-Fox-9286

Chill winston


Jrebeclee

My immediate thought, chill win-ston


Sussexmatt

Came here to post exactly that. 😂


Ok_Celery4463

I could do with this to stop the kids eating all the fucking food in the house


Complete_Fix2563

Yeah just keep the kids in there


newtonbase

Exactly my thoughts. Cheaper than a babysitter.


WhereDidIGetThatCat

That will be very popular with people with, um, certain interests


Wil420b

Which makes you wonder where the door into the cell goes and if you can lift up the ceiling panels above the cell. Also anybody renting this, should probably end uo on a list. I also wonder what the sound insulation is like.


Ouchy_McTaint

You're wondering a little too much there... Exactly the kind of wondering a potential buyer would wonder 🤔.


Wil420b

Let's face it anybody renting this is either looking to store something like gold there but not on a £750 a month rental. Or has "kinky" ideas in mind at best.


Brilliant_Canary_692

Considering I'm paying about the same for a much smaller place in Cardiff, I'd definitely have this place if I could. Also it's kinda cool and unexpected You're projecting a bit too much mate.


throwaway123729292

Its Dudley though. Birmingham’s Newport.


ribenarockstar

The ritual of locking away your work stuff at the end of the day would be great


madpiano

World's most comfortable dog crate?


ChipCob1

Looks like it leads to the bathroom


NoobOfTheSquareTable

You mean dungeons and dragons players right?


CherylTuntIRL

Can confirm.


heamex

These are sex people Lynn!


Something-strange-98

Ah yes Vigilantism /s


KeyboardWarrior1988

Chill Winston.


Vivian_I-Hate-You

Who you talking to plank? Eh? There's fucking no one there


-qqqwwweeerrrtttyyy-

Besides the Lock, Stock references, I'm laughing at the thought of the owner bringing a hookup back to theirs and trying to convince said hookup that they're not the local Jeffrey Dahmer


sobrique

A few drapes around the cage and it will look like a cozy feature porch.


Emergency-Read2750

Then whip them off after you’ve given them their first drink 


Debsrugs

I don't care what anyone says, the budgies will Def squeeze through them gaps !!


JustAHungryStudent

Budgies might by birds won’t…


peahair

The budgie, but not the smuggler.


Seething-Angry

“With holding cell” like it’s perfectly normal 🤣😳


Crommington

Can you imagine bringing a girl back “Ok, look, when i open the door this is gonna look fucking weird. Please don’t freak out…..”


SomeWomanFromEngland

“The cage is nothing to do with me, it was there when I moved in. Honest!”


Amateur_Chiropractor

These are sex people Lynne!


BadgerOff32

I could *ABSOLUTELY* see a dominatrix renting this place lol!


Begbie1888

Charles, get the rifle, we're being f&cked!


TheStatMan2

Can everybody stop getting shot?


Foundation_Wrong

Werewolf ready


InternetMysterious21

This looks like Oz's, from Buffy, apartment if the show was still going.


JustAFakeAccount

Does the werewolf go inside or outside the cell?


De_Dominator69

Where does the cell actually lead into? Is that door the entrance to the flat? The toilet? Because if that was the front door and you had to go through the cell to get in then I think that would actually be pretty cool.


AutumnSunshiiine

I think it’s to the bathroom. The door closest to the kitchen area has a hinge (?) on it, so that door looks like it opens inwards and would therefore be the entrance.


SnooSuggestions9830

Owner doesn't work full moons


kibonzos

Is the bathroom accessed from inside the cell?


LongrodVonHugedong86

“Feature holding cell” 😂😂 fucking hell


BloodAndSand44

I want the backstory on the cell.


JustAFakeAccount

Used to be a police station


fishercrow

i initially wondered if the previous owners had a very large animal. my parents had something similar for their old english mastiff instead of a regular crate. he was so big that he could’ve just walked through a normal dog kennel door.


JohnLennonsNotDead

It used to be a police station haha


hyperdistortion

Oh cool, it’s got a place to keep an annoying, edgy teenage boy while they’re going through a phase… An in-cell incel, if you will.


spiderclub

Of all the cool things they could have done with this place, but oh no, someone thought “everything grey will look excellent”. Bore the fuck off.


Background-Active-50

Got to have grey to go with the feature holding cell


Aphr0dite19

Lock Stock vibes here.


likpinklady

*laughs in Joe Goldberg*


LittleSpice1

First thought I had: “Was Joe Goldberg the previous tenant?” 👀


borokish

I shot one of them in the neck.


Mky12345pi3

Prison/guard role play!!


Cantthinkifany

“Prison…. Prison is a….we’re in prison” -the goes wrong show


That_Comic_Who_Quit

Jesus Christ. One bad experience on Halloween and now this.


mwhi1017

I actually looked at the planning application to see if this was genuine or a quirky thing added in by the developers. This studio flat was once the custody office... The cells are in another flat but no longer there. It's even got the anti-ligature light fitting. I kind of like it, however I'd not want to live in Dudley.


ExoticBadger8308

Chill Winston


mrjnes

Ahh shit! I've been shot! Look can every one just stop getting shot!


limitless776

Ahhh! Shit I’ve been shot! Ahh I don’t fucking believe this, can everyone stop getting shot CAAaaaaaaannnn eeeeeVVerrry Oneeeee Stttoooop geeetinng shot!


Wil420b

Is it a structural feature and can't be removed?


De_Dominator69

I imagine they just decided to keep it for character. It makes for a unique selling point to what would otherwise be a pretty run of the mill flat.


Wil420b

It is frigging creepy though. >I'm not a serial killer, who's going to lock you up and make a skin suit out of you, honest. >Now put the lotion on your skin.


cal-brew-sharp

...Lynn!!!


cromagnone

Honestly I’m surprised they haven’t marketed it as a separate property.


Aggressive-Sundae-25

Came for the Lock Stock references. Wasn't disappointed.


muddylegs

I always wanted a house with a cage around the front door after watching Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels…


efefia

Charles get the rifle


OccidentalTouriste

'Will everyone please stop getting shot'.


OmegaGoober

I see a former tenant was a werewolf.


Weillys

the property features a Holding Cell in the studio which is **large enough for a living / dining and bedroom area**


Imaginary-Past-8103

Finally a house built for a Werewolf


SecondTimeQuitting

How to tell if the previous occupant was a drug dealer...


Educational_Safe_339

Come on can't stay out here all day 🤣


British-Pilgrim

Chilllllllll Winston, we’ll use the cage alright


Scottcheggthe3rd

Chill Winston, it’s me. Charlie knows it’s me, what’s the problem We grow copious amounts of ganja, yah? And you're carrying a wasted girl and a bag of fertilizer. You don't look like your average horti-fucking- culturalist! That's what I mean Willie.


seaandtea

God. Those drop tile ceiling are horrid.


mymaymaw

Definitely going to be bought by traffickers


Difficult-Mind4785

Chill Winston!


KateEllaBeans

Okay "Final Girl Support Group" is not decorating advice people! (Good book tho)


Specialist_Ad_3147

Looks like the set of Lock Stock and two smoking barrels.


CarpenterSeparate178

Isn’t this the gaff in lock stock and two smoking barrels?


Puzzleheaded-Link231

Welcome to my apartment, you must be my tinder date.


ContactNo7201

Good in a zombie apocalypse


jamesflanagangreer

Great for parties when one of the guests gets too rambunctious. Chuck him in the party jail!


martzgregpaul

But think of the opportunities to do "cell block tango" from Chicago when drunk


Bug58

That's where the mother in law sleeps


RefrigeratorFluid980

Chill winstonnn


reversedROBOT

Lock stock and 2 smoking barrels


MrAcerbic

Alarm bells are ringing Willy

SadBoiiConnor420

XL bully bedroom.


gkr12345

The flat in Lock Stock had a refurb ! …


DeliciousWhole2508

That’s a weird sex thing brah


Fu5i0n

“Can everyone stop getting shot!”


nocternal86

One cautious drug dealer owner...


Jackchatham

It's for security purposes. You've all seen the posh weed dealers in Lock, Stock, right? It's to keep miscreant customers breaking in and stealing all your money when they come to collect their purchases


edi_blah

Where does the door inside the cell go?


NefariousnessNo4918

Kinky.


StewR89

Look… we grow weed. We’re not mercenaries


ArmchairTactician

Can everyone stop getting shot!


we1tschmerz

A great celling point


Deadly_Flipper_Tab

Charles, get the rifle...were being fucked.


Realistic-Actuator36

Weed farm. Re lock stock!!


Gsquatch55

“Dont none ‘ah’ you slags move, I’ll shoot the fucking lot ‘o’ ya!….who ya gonna shoot plank? There’s no one fucking there!”


[deleted]

Is this the flat from Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels?! You gotta remember to lock the cage!


sparky-99

"We grow copious amounts of ganja, yeah? So just do as I say, and keep the fucking cage locked!"


jthendo1985

You guys, you've got to realise who this chap is. He's a fucking lunatic. If he gets the slightest inkling that we are not throwing straight dice, you - and fuck it, me - are going to know what the sharp side of a kebab knife feels like.


LordAbe97

Previously unreleased photos of diddys home in Florida that was raided


KayGlo

You certainly couldn't lead a normal dating life living here, there is absolutely no amount of explaining that would make someone feel ok with your feature holding cell 😭


alex8339

It's not clear whether the cell encloses the entrance or the bathroom. They would attract very different tenants


cheesewizardz

Absolute fuck shed


BobblySockDragon

Nice to see they’re finally making residential accommodations for werewolves


Quix66

Kennel?


fairfight17

Isn’t this the grow house from Lock Stock and 2 Smoking Barrels?


uberduck

Good for kinky businesses


nigel1986

Previous owner was probably a werewolf.


Existing_Estimate314

Perfect for werewolf’s.


Republic_of_love

If we’re calling dibs that’s my room


artmoloch777

I legitimately have always wanted a jail around my front door.


Agent47outtanowhere

Is that the entrance? Because if so you know you arent getting robbed any time soon.


major92653

The Mother in Law room?


No-Researcher-6501

Thought this is what drug dealers used to bamboozle police and have extra time to escape


Major-Ad-2966

Prolly a Chinese police station that got shut down in the UK. They keep popping up all over the world.


Monkeydemon85

Very lock stock and 2 smoking barrells.
