Interesting point. Next door has recently changed hands after only
about 3 years. The previous owners bought it from an 80 year old who
had maintained it well, but not modernised much on a 100 year old
house, only as he needed. They changed the layout and installed a new
fitted kitchen, modernised the bathroom, and added a second one.

The new owners have ripped all that out and replaced it with units to
their taste.

And your point is...? :-)

That the best bathroom in the world might add nothing to the value of the
house if the buyer intends to replace it with his own choice?
