When you finally get the keys to your own house, you’re free to transform it into your personal paradise. And for one homeowner in Brighton, that meant adorning the facade of their property with a giant mural of Prince William and Prince Harry, dressed as the characters from *Breaking Bad*.
The mural depicts the royal brothers in matching green hoodies, towering above the words ‘Breaking Up’, styled in the same font as the iconic *Breaking Bad* series. The artwork, perhaps a playful jab at the rumored royal feud, is accompanied by the ominous graffiti-like text: ‘We are the danger’.
Listed as a ‘prime investment opportunity’ by agents John Hilton, the home has certainly caught attention with its eye-catching artwork – thought to be the work of a local artist. While the house might stand out in the residential area, the street itself is renowned for its creative displays. It’s believed this house was previously adorned with a large mural of Peter Griffin, from *Family Guy*, and before that, with the colours and crest of Brighton’s football team, The Seagulls. Meanwhile, the house opposite features a painting of an airplane and the word ‘Aroe’ – the name of an artist known for similar works in the area. Whether Aroe is also behind the royal mural remains unclear.
Unusual artwork aside, the house is a decent catch for anyone after a new abode in the seaside town. Spanning three levels and covering 1,098 square feet, it includes a bathroom, a lounge, a spacious kitchen and a good-sized garden. Pictures also show two art deco-style fireplaces in the property – one in the living room and another one in the bedrooms – which despite appearing to be boarded up, add plenty of character. The rooms have no shortage of natural light streaming through the windows either, while the kitchen comes fitted with an oven and a hob.
However, the listing by John Hilton Estate Agents makes no mention of the striking artwork that makes this property either a catch or a straight no-sale. The property listing itself reads: ‘A four-bedroom HMO property let until August 2025 at £2,700 per calendar month, or £32,400 per annum. ‘Centrally located near the bustling Preston Circus with shops, cafes and bars nearby, and within easy walking distance of Brighton and London Road stations. ‘Spacious accommodation arranged over three levels with separate lounge, modern kitchen, shower room and four double bedrooms. Ideal for student letting, with excellent public transport links to the universities.’
Whether you’re a fan of royal satire, *Breaking Bad*, or simply appreciate a unique and eye-catching property, this Brighton home is sure to spark conversation and maybe even a bidding war.
