A grand Victorian home has gone viral for hiding a quirky secret behind its elegant façade inspired by supermodel and actress Cara Delevingne.
Julie Williams, an IT consultant from Birkdale, installed a ball pit in an upstairs room of her seven-bedroom Merseyside home, after taking inspiration from Delevingne's famously eccentric Los Angeles mansion.
'You can never be sad in a ball pit,' said Williams, explaining her motivation. 'No one really thinks about the idea of putting a ball pit in their own house.'
The unusual addition is cleverly tucked away beside a flight of stairs on the first floor, where it functions as a colourful play area – or an unexpected retreat for adults in need of a mood boost.
'If the new owners want to keep it… it's been built in, it makes sense,' she added.
