    Just... what?! All the things money can buy with no particular idea what to do with them for the most part.

    Great find!

    I like the clock in pic 10 but I am a sucker for oversized clocks.

    Now I quite like that house:)

    The two things that strike me are:
    - I'd have to put up double-glazed doors/something in between the kitchen and conservatory
    - Wonder how "small" that area of the country is that they may feel "We're a bit outa the way - don't have to bother about 'rules' here "?

    Those two factors would be a bit offputting to me - but house itself (and the garden:D) generally looking good to me.

    This is a really neat little flat, I particularly like the outside yard in pic 7 which appears to be situated somewhere in the middle of purgatory...

    Well it looks pretty modern/no work overall (unless those kitchen units are laminate or summat, rather than real wood) - but that poor little yard OMG:eek:

    There aren't any rules being broken there, so maybe it's the size of your monitor that's small.


    But in any case there is nothing stopping someone removing the exterior doors to their conservatory as soon as a visiting building inspector has gone, assuming he was ever there, nor would anyone need to be in a special part of the country to do it.


    One thing we can be fairly sure of: that knock at the door isn't a visit by the French Door Gendarmarie! :)

    That flat isn't bad for the area. Reasonable size rooms, close to station and parking - but you have to be prepared to live in Bexleyheath. Many people love Bexleyheath, I'm not one of them.

    And it has its own little battlement complete with tiny turret! Perfect for your archers to aim through and repel doorsteppers/building inspectors etc. :)
