My number one priority is go get viewers to WANT to go see the listing in person. Good images do that.
Secondly, the only way to show a full view of a room is to shoot with a wide angle lens. Mine is 15MM. Wide angle lenses distort things on the periphery. It's unavoidable if you want to show the entire room. What I usually do to avoid what you are objecting to in this particular photo is to only show a portion of that fridge.
