A TIME warp home on sale for £400,000 has a hidden incredible 1970s interior – complete with shag carpets and orange sofas.

The unique three-bedroom home in Wigan, Greater Manchester, is described as needing “modernisation” but features a style typically seen in a hit Hollywood film.

It comes complete with a vintage interior including a retro orange sofa, frosted glass and a shag carpet.

It also boats a gold and brown bathroom with a large open-plan dining and living room.

Local estate agent Regan & Hallworth highlights how the home “has an undeniably timeless appeal”.

Their listing reads: “Defined by clean lines, organic forms, high functionality, bright spacious rooms and open plan living, this unique home really has to be viewed to be appreciated.

“Set well back from the leafy lane in an elevated position, the house has been designed with bedrooms on the ground floor and living space on the top to take advantage of the views, as well as providing the living spaces with as much light as possible.

“The primary entrance is positioned at the front underneath the lounge which is cantilevered above with an extensive driveway and front garden enclosed by mature shrubs and trees.

"The hallway provides access to three good sized double bedrooms, all with fitted robes, family bathroom and a boiler room."
