I was lucky enough to visit this property yesterday. It’s designed by Voysey a rather lovely architect. The owner has lovingly restored many of the original features. The estate agent is more interested in the kitchen and bathrooms but look for hearts Voysey’s signature design. https://www.rightmove.co.uk/properties/161816681#/?channel=RES_BUY Just need £3.5 million and I am moving. 😀5

Too right, always found it to be a very unsatisfactory description anyway. But it should never mean the upstairs and downstairs are both connected as appears in these builds. Posh terrace more like.Ditzy_Mitzy said:Surely this is stretching the definition of 'link-detached' to somewhere beyond breaking point?
