Way above the average price for the area, but I came across this on my house search! I LOVE the lounge

(had to remove the www thing as it won't let me post a link

Like you, I was surprised by the price but having drooled over the pics.... gorgeous....

The area aint too bad, some street views are a good size, this one is mini. . in the write up, it says

"Incentives

Three year car club membership and £50 driving credit (see T&Cs)"  when you check out the street view I don't think you will be in doubt about which make of car.

Another thing. Go on streeview and scroll the screen to the left to a house with scaffolding. That scaffolding has been on the property for at least 10 years!

Slightly strange loo setup there too--not terrible as there's a family bathroom but the 'ensuite' doesn't have a toilet and the downstairs loo is only accessible from the outside.

That is nice and in such a beautiful part of the world.

Loved it when we took our boat there and it will be one of the first places we visit later this year when we get our motorhome.

Handy for the gardener, I suppose, and better than opening straight off the lounge  - but I would have found a way of putting a cloakroom in the utility space.

When my parents bought their unmodernised 1930s semi in the 1970s that had a similar set up - a bathroom with a bath and sink, but a loo that despite being on the house footprint was only accessible from outside.

The house had been empty for a while, and lets just say that the local kiddies had been playing in the large, overgrown, garden and making use of the facilities.

They obviously couldn't fit a new bathroom suite from day 1, so mum's first job was to clean the loo.  5 gallons of bleach and a lot of elbow grease later, it was usable - but because the kids still thought of it as 'theirs' we had to fit a padlock to the door.  Cue tapdancing round the kitchen at 2am when the last person to use it hadn't put the key back.....

I've seen the loo access via the outside quite a few times  on RightMove - in otherwise quite recently modernized properties.
I think it's the remnants of a much older  outside loo extension - sometimes it gets turned into outside storage if a door isnt or can't be easily  added via the kitchen  but often it seems people can't be bothered to strip out  the sanitary  ware so it still  gets "floor planned" as a loo.
