    And spot the bunny rabbit. This house gives me the chills. Do they have shares in a spotlight factory?

    I was going to put this one up as a 'Spot the Agent,' but forgot. :o Good research. Expected Ms Newcombe had moved on, till I saw couple of the bedrooms.

    Yeoford's in a very nice little valley, but I wouldn't give it picture postcard status.I disagree about the garden too, where there's potential in the right hands, but it has a problem of poor privacy, which might be almost insoluble.


    Anyway, agent easy to spot!

    Hope this is the right one, trying to do it on my tablet :o

    As for opinions - I am not very demanding property wise, this seems pleasant enough and would consider it if I was in Nottingham. As a family home I am not sure, I think I would want at least a toilet downstairs and not sure a shower room is enough for a young family.

    It also drives me mad when there is no floor plan as it helps me 'see' space better but there doesn't seem to be a lot of storage space?

    Don't know the area so no idea if price is reasonable but no doubt plenty will tell you it is overpriced ��

    Looks like virtually the last house in the more up-market area before its boundary with a lower-cost area, but the roads I looked at in there seemed OKish.


    There is/is going to be a large area of housing built across the road. What that's comprised of will affect desirability, as does the busy road The latter would put me off more than just a shower or the lack of a downstairs loo.


    Good sized south facing garden, with a potential building plot beyond it.

    Not easy, why the photograph taken in the dark?

    It is much easier to see in daylight, I drove past yesterday.

    Dreadful location both front and back, but I do like the porch on it.

    It has to be the 'blandest' interior (as opposed to 'neutral') I have seen for a while. From the photos I'd say it looks completely 'forgettable' in a world of digital marketing for a property. Is there anyway for you to dress it up a little with a few bits of colour cushions, flowers, rugs etc - and get some professional photos?
    However, it does appears well maintained and tidy.

    I don't mean to be harsh if its your property OP :o

    When you realise it is on a main A road, thousands drive past it every day.

    Agreed

    In fact, just dragged husband in to look at it and asked him to guess price, with no knowledge of location.
