Residents complain over “disgusting” pink home (Pictures: TikTok)
Fuming residents have slammed their neighbour for building a “disgusting” bright pink “real-life Barbie Dreamhouse”.
The vibrant coloured property was first advertised on a Facebook council house swap site which quickly racked up more than 7600 likes and a slew of mixed comments.
The three-bedroom house, in Essex England, underwent its rosy makeover two years ago, causing polarising opinions between neighbours.

“Horrible. Disgusting. Horrible. Totally ridiculous,” one resident told The Sun.
“It’s no harm, but I wouldn’t want to live next door to it. Only because if you wanted to sell your house you wouldn’t would you? You wouldn’t be able to sell it.”
“Oh Barbie. It’s a bit out of place isn’t it for around here?“, resident Barry Renwick added.
“When she first moved in she painted her house pink. We thought ‘that’s a bit odd, a bit strange.’
“A lot of people came miles around just to have a look at The Pink House after it’s been on Facebook. She’s had run-ins with the neighbours on many occasions.
“But I just let her get on with it. As long as she doesn’t bother me it’s fine.”

June Harris, 62, has lived on the street for 42 years and has witnessed the doll Dreamhouse come to life.
“I love it. It’s good what she’s done, I don’t mind it. I always say each to their own, you know, they can do what they want – good luck to her,” Ms Harris says.
“You’ve got to have balls to do something like that, and she’s just being herself. I think it’s brilliant.”
A viral TikTok video by housinghorrors has revealed the inside of the property, showing the bright pink also adventures into the home’s living room and kitchen.
