any clever maths bods can work out acres........

wecanhelpu

suzi -You have underestimated the size of the plot - it is actually 272.5 sq.m

not 227.5 which it was with your original dimensions.

It is almost 0.07 or 7% of an acre.


Still sounds bl00dy expensive though.

What's the planning permission for?



Edit: crossed post

suzy2007

i am comparing what greenslade tayor etc are selling on their website and some of them are in acres so i was comparing ............have nt got any details as yet .......... going to wait till after summer hols !
i agree about visualising acres ............i visualise 6ft men laid down when i need to measure things !! or was that my last dream !!!!!
what colour is your combine??

suzy2007

we can help u ....................its for a 4 bed house ...........

GG............ where in somerset are you ........i'm between yeovil and taunton ...in a well sought after village with full amenities !!! sound like an estate agent ..xx

GG shares a lot of characteristics with estate agents suzi.

But we won't go into that. I don't want to get into trouble again.

suzy2007

do you often get into trouble !!!?? xx

Blue!

BTW George is assuming that at 10 metres in, the plot begins to narrow steadily till it is just 6.5m wide at the back (which it might do but 272.5 square metres is still short of 7% of an acre!)

I assumed that the plot was more like two rectangles of 8.5m x 10m at the front and 6.5m x 25m at the back perhaps due to some kink in the boundary! (i.e. 247 square metres).

Could still park my 14 foot cut combine harvester down the back and still have room to squeeze past in my tractor I reckon!

suzy2007

p baker .....what a nice colour ..........same colour as my fav footie team .coventry city .................
i am not kinky and you could get your combine down my back passage !! now we are getting rude !! xx

only needed a rough guide to the acreage ................ta

I too assumed that the plot steadily narrowed from 8.5 to 6.5 (ie a rectangle with a trapezium attached)

Whatever.


suzy - yes I do get into trouble on here because I can't stand greed and stupidity and there's lots of it on here. And two-bob millionaires acting like they're the duke of f*cking westminster.

So I tell it like it is and some people don't like it.

Anyway, Your plot sounds nice

That's fair enough. Good luck to you.

Get it valued and take it from there.

What's the access like?

Have you got a rear entrance?
