    If you like
    • living in small spaces
    • living underground, close to the tube (ok, very close to the tube - see map view)
    • turquoise
    • triangles (see floorplan)
    • [STRIKE]outdoor corridors[/STRIKE] patios
    Then this could be the place for you!

    But actually quite a bargain, even for Foxtons!

    Emergency support for a sagging ceiling...?

    It looks exactly like someone has painted one of those! Missing RSJ anyone?

    I didn't realise that was allowed. :eek:

    I had to have a look on street view to see if it was right. The house next door and across the street are for sale too when the Google street car took the photos.

    I'm not surprised - can you imagine how your fillings would buzz if you lived there!!

    Deary, deary me.
    It is a good idea to be alone in a garden at dawn or dark so that all its shy presences may haunt you and possess you in a reverie of suspended thought.

    I think it would be a bargain if you were able to put a door into the wall that connects with the tube line and install your own station, but other than that, I prefer my walls not to shake uncontrollably every 2 minutes for 19 hours a day.
    Come on people, it's not difficult: lose means to be unable to find, loose means not being fixed in place. So if you have a hole in your pocket you might lose your loose change.

    You know how a house reflects personality? Not exactly sure what to make of picture 7..... until that point I thought they had moved out already

    Go upstairs, and there's one big bed, and seven little ones.... Open the cutlery drawer, there's one big set and seven little ones, etc etc....

    It is a myth that (the 2 deepest) tube lines make your house rattle! Also the tubes most commonly follow the route of a road as it was easier to build through!

    Hmmm... doesn't seem to follow the road to me (and at this point it is overground):

    I think this shot may explain more clearly the reason why the flat (or more precisely: the house) is the shape it is: yep that little wedge shaped thing is where the flat is!

    No tubes come out of KX overground so I think that is the new link to Stratford for the Fast Eurostar! Therefore may be a tad noisy!
