The "have a look at this!" thread II

John_Pierpoint

I cannot see any immediate problems with this one other than the price.
[Mid terrace - no garage? Yes it appears there is a rentoutable double length garage with a blue door a bit further east along the road?!!]

New to the market

"Southerly aspect" refers to the garden not the front of the house, so bay windows will be a liability at this time of year. Check the bay is not trying to fall off into the street.

Bit back from the river but the riverside road is called "the embankment" - I wonder why. - check the flood map.

What, apart from 30 year old electric fires is the heating in this place?
Electrics may well be in a mess and the thermal insulation inadequate - is there space underneath to crawl ?

My son has recently bought something not a million miles different from this one.

We had carpet like that but in green, in every room in our bungalow when we moved in a year ago.

Just be careful. According to the Express, they're on the increase.

They often give themselves away though. Invitations like, "Would you like to come round to see my enormous newel post?" are a dead give away. And you'll know they're really hardcore if they add something like, "It's joined to a gooseneck riser."

Try to refuse politely. After all, they probably had a tough childhood living on the 5th floor, and besides, it's Christmas. :xmassmile
