Surprising past sold prices for that heap:

£11k in 2004, £60k in 2007

Southwold is very nice, if a bit full of Soho media types hence the price. However I would dispute that it's a cottage at all: it looks a ruddy end-of-terrace to me.

Walberswick is much better

That's quite a hit, £60k to £15k in a few short years.....

They were very long years for those of us trying to sell!

Contrast that to a street of terraced houses in Norwich and most will have cars parked nose to tail.

My first foray into this thread...the whole house is a bit :eek: in terms of decor, but its picture 7 that really got me! First my attention is drawn to the, well, not quite sure what, under the desk, then, getting over the shock of that, is that a cupboard with a shower door? Scrolling down the page....NO! Its an EN SUITE SHOWER! of course! :rotfl:

Decoration aside, I think the most notable feature is the triangular kitchen, which the agents, bless them, have tried to put a positive spin on by calling it 'unique.'

It's a very jolly house, with quite an attractive facade, and it would be more than double the asking price where I last lived.

I bet that 'shower' is responsible for a few banged elbows.

Pic 9 made me jump. At first glance, I thought there was an enormous spider by the side of the bed...What in the world is that??

Edit: Davesnave, I think the kitchen is my favourite room in that house

Pic 8 - that has to be the worlds smallest corner bath?! Or is it a footspa? :rotfl:
