There are certain homes that tend to attract attention online, whether it be for their huge size, luxury features or bargain prices. But one house in Salford has got people talking simply because of its owner's controversial choice of colour.
The three-bed bungalow in Swinton is currently one of the most-viewed homes in Greater Manchester because it is entirely black both inside and out.
Every wall, almost every surface and each piece of furniture is jet black - and even the outside of the gothic-style property itself has a black exterior. To put it simply, this house probably isn't the one for you if you're a lover of bright colours.

A quick glance at the photos show that every single room, even what appears to be the kid's bedrooms, are painted pure black.
Accessories such as a black panther statue in the dining area and a scull patterned black wallpaper add to the eerie look.
If you can look past the darkness, the bungalow itself is a fairly large size and has been extended upwards in recent years to provide additional space.
Set behind electric gates with a driveway and a detached garage, the three-bed property could make for a lovely family home.
To the ground floor the bungalow comprises an entrance porch, a hallway, a large lounge and a generous open plan dining room and fitted kitchen with a utility room.
On this floor there are also three good sized double bedrooms and a three piece bathroom.
Upstairs in the attic, which was converted in recent years, is another room that is being used by the current owner as an addition bedroom with a dressing area and a freestanding bath.
The property also benefits from outbuildings that include a gym, office, play room and a store room which provides further living and entertaining space.
Outside there is also a landscaped garden to the rear that is of a good size and is not overlooked, and further land is available to buy via a separate negotiation.
The estate agents Miller Metcalfe said: "Situated within a generous private gated plot, this superb home has been significantly extended and offers exceptionally well-proportioned living space that must be seen in person to be fully appreciated.
"The location is within easy access to many local shops and amenities and is well placed for renowned primary and secondary schooling.
"It is also ideal for access to major transport links making it ideal for those looking to commute into Manchester and across the north west.
"Rarely do homes of this type remain on the market for long and as such, an early internal viewing is strongly advised to avoid disappointment."
