- A property filled with rubbish has hit the market for £180,000
- The Gosport home has mould-ridden walls, piles of clothes and filthy floors
- It’s been called ‘Britain’s saddest’ by concerned Redditors
A three-bedroom house packed with rubbish has been dubbed ‘Britain’s saddest’ after hitting the market for £180,000.
The unloved property in Gosport, Hampshire, has mould-ridden walls, stained cabinets, filthy floors and rubbish in every corner.
The terrace house looks as if it’s been lived in by a hoarder with piles of clothes and boxes stacked to the ceiling, providing few clear walkways.
The kitchen is a disgusting mess with cat litter trays and spills covering the surfaces, while the living room is dirty with no space to walk and one bedroom is no better with boxes obscuring parts of the window.
A three-bedroom house in Gosport, Hampshire, has been dubbed ‘Britain’s saddest’ after it launched onto the market filled with rubbish
One room is completely crammed with boxes, clothes, bags, books and other items that almost touch the ceiling
The living room is dirty with barely any space to walk around. Despite the mess, the property hit the market for £180,000 and will be ‘sold as is’
The garden is also swamped with overgrown weeds, plants and bushes along with plastic waste discarded on the ground.
Despite the mess, the property has been described as ‘spacious’ and will be ‘sold as seen’. There’s also a cellar, off-road parking and a downstairs loo.
Sadly one of the few tidy rooms appears to be a child’s bedroom with toys on the bed and a tree on the damp wall.

The person who buys the property will have a big job on their hands clearing all the mess
The only room in the house that’s somewhat tidy with a clear space to walk is the bathroom, but there’s still an overflowing bookshelf, dirt on the walls and stains on the bathtub.

‘This might be Britain’s saddest house. I hope the people inside get the help they need,’ one Redditor said.
Another added: ‘It’s very sad when someone clearly isn’t coping, and hasn’t been for quite some time.’
‘This is a life that’s spiralled out of control,’ another chipped in.
And one said: ‘Hope they are ok.’
The cause of hoarding is unknown, but it has been linked to trauma, painful feelings and childhood experiences such as losing a loved one or living in poverty.
