Why has this house not sold?

The price, is through the roof

For the past few years, Beckside Barn has been successfully run as a holiday let through Sykes Cottages with exceptionally high occupancy levels during that period

Suggests to me that despite the small % price drops, they're in no hurry to sell: they don't live there, and it's a reasonably successful business.

yes it fronts a road, but that road is a dead end and the google streetview car stopped just after the viaduct as that is where the road ceases to be "public" as there are only 2 houses beyond it. Doubtless you'd get thundering tractors passing by the house at times, but I doubt it is "busy"

It doesn't need to be a busy road to be dangerous. It's unlikely to be a similar situation, but my scariest encounter with an oncoming vehicle was on a private, dead end road.


I was going to the last premises, to collect some plants, when a speeding Range Rover suddenly appeared, head on, but luckily I could swerve into a hedge.


This lady, according to the planter seller, was often late for appointments so would hare along the lane.

But that's what you must do in the country. It's etiquette.

Mind you, my high top Mercedes van trumps a Range Rover.

17year old driving John Deere with trailer trumps everything!
