    YUK! Tries to remember whether it might be Footballers Wives territory...

    I'd like the cottage in the grounds instead though..

    EDIT: now read on - and see it is a footballers house...why am I not surprised?

    Yes I remember reading about Gary's venture into property development, don't think he actually lives there though.

    Look how big the living area is in this house, you can fit a whole corner sofa in the lounge area with ease.

    It's a good size, proper bathroom. Spash of paint and it'd be good. And - if you compare it to renting you'd have got it "free" after 3-4 years.

    I thought the current owners paid £67k for it

    Then I realised it wasn't that one, it's a back to back house and the red cross is over the number.... and it's not on street view as it's "down the back".

    Such a shame - lovely looking houses, nice leafy street, ruined by the unkempt weed filled front gardens full of wheelie bins hand painted with flat numbers in a scrawl of left over gloss paint.

    Seems like a decent price for a 2 bed London flat as well.

    Check out this beauty! :D Would have been ideal for students if it wasn't so far away from the University and Colleges. :p

    This made my :rotfl: as it is in a small flat and not part of a larger house. Loving the decor - I can picture Arfur Daley at the bar sipping a G & T. :D

    The Estate Agent seems unsure if it is a 1 or 2 bedroomed flat.
