    Grade 1 "castle" with a bit of garden plus views over the river.

    And a waterfall, sorry, grand cascade.
    Savills, £15 million, and they can't even draw a floorplan!
    I'd quite like one of those cottages in the garden.

    We had a longlisted house at Wetheral when we were looking to relocate to Cumbria. It was a little less grand it has to be said.... :)

    Oh yeah, those lovely old red toilet boxes.
    Corduroy pillows are making headlines! Back home in London now after 27years wait! Duvet know it's Christmas, not original, it's a cover.

    But, don't you need to buy the whole thing so that you can have wifelets in the cottages?

    Only 77 Mb broadband in that location?
    Anyway, if you wanted a new job you're a couple of weeks too late!

    Very disappointed the mortgage calculator (Nationwide advertising on that page) a monthly repayment of £186,910 over 25 years) isn't actually valid as they don't lend over £5m.

    Also has a "storage hut", not sure if that is grander than a shed or not.

    That probably  means nobody can legally sleep overnight in it.
    Same clouds front and back.

    Guessing that the seller and any buyer want a lot of anonymity. Maybe interior photos would give away information about which corrupt dictator of a failed African state owns it, funded by UN aid syphoned off over the years. Perhaps many s**-trafficked young women might recognise it too

    But why put anything on Rightmove at all? Just so you can say it's the most expensive property in Westminster?

    Maybe Epstein's probate has been sorted..
