UK's 'worst' hoarder house
A three-storey house in Coundon, Coventry, West Midlands went on July 11 for an estimated £80,000 to £100,000.
Inside the seemingly regular property, buyers are met with a shocking hoard of junk and abandoned belongings.

The bathroom has been left in a revolting state with the broken toilet filled to the brim with nauseating mess.
The walls, floors, and wallpaper look intact and in good condition, but are hidden behind the mountain of junk covering every room.
The property also boasts a small grass area in the front, a garden, a garage and an allocated parking - although they're crowded too.
