They've already jacked the price up twice over the past 18 months. I think this could take quite a while to shift
Buy it quick! Before they put the price up by another £200K:rotfl:0 -
Just a few of what you could buy for the same money or less 'oop north'

Been on the market for over a year and a half and they have put the price up twice already.

What on earth is Available to Double Garage? :eek: I guess it should be SSTC. Does that mean that the sale has fallen through thrice and every time the price is put up :eek::eek: And how do they up the price when it is in SSTC?Mortgage: @ Feb. 2007: £133,200; Apr. 2011: £24,373; May 2011: £175,999; Jun 2013: ~£97K; Mar. 2014 £392,212.73; Dec. 2015: £327,051.77; Mar. 2016: ~£480K; Mar. 2017 £444,445.74

I have seen this house before somewhere, but having put the URL into the MSE search engine it didn't match, so I don't think it's been posted before. Sorry if it makes everyone groan "been there, done that"....
It's obscene. Who in their right mind needs 21 and a half bathrooms for starters. That's before we get onto the personal bowling alley or ballroom.

I seriously would not have that if you paid me (well, maybe if you paid me a lot
) A positive attitude may not solve all your problems, but it will annoy enough people to make it worth the effort

It's a fairly good indicator that money doesn't buy taste. Though who would buy it I don't know. Tiger Woods lives local to this and a few film stars. It's good to see a house that's out of the league of the average premier league footballer mind.Please stay safe in the sun and learn the A-E of melanoma: A = asymmetry, B = irregular borders, C= different colours, D= diameter, larger than 6mm, E = evolving, is your mole changing?

I'm guessing someone started with the refurbishment? I wish I could finish it - lovely part of the country
