    Really? I think it's gorgeous..........all dark and interesting :p

    You could be my twin sister. We seem to have a penchant for similar properties. Although I also like uber modernism too. :rotfl:

    With that one I would try and remove the strange blue add ons at the front if planning would allow. I think it has a lovely Jacobean look about it, although it's obviously "mock". Late Victorian perhaps.

    As for all those outbuildings - money to be made there. :rotfl::rotfl:

    :rotfl: Gosh, we do, don't we........:rotfl: Funny, I hated uber modernist places till fairly recently, but find they're now growing on me. Tastes definitely change/mature with age - in my twenties I was heavily into Art Deco interiors, but since my mid-thirties (now in my forties), I've been in love with Arts & Crafts/Art Nouveau......so in that respect at least I'm going backwards, LOL, but maybe it'll all change and I'll end up embracing minimalism after all :D

    Me too. Personally I blame Kevin McCloud :smileyhea.
    A positive attitude may not solve all your problems, but it will annoy enough people to make it worth the effort

    This one is a bit of an estate agent fail, rather than an awful house. Picture 8 in particular shows it off...

    Fantastic. Best use of photoshopped sky ever. Don't let the fact it's snowing stop you using sunny blue sky and fluffy white clouds :rotfl:
