In order to help keep the Forum a useful, safe and friendly place for our users, discussions around non-MoneySaving matters are not permitted per the Forum rules. While we understand that mentioning house prices may sometimes be relevant to a user's specific MoneySaving situation, we ask that you please avoid veering into broad, general debates about the market, the economy and politics, as these can unfortunately lead to abusive or hateful behaviour.

It seems surprisingly easy to decorate a house when you only like two colours. The doors are an interesting design choice too.

https://search.savills.com/property-detail/gbedrseds170248 looks nice from the outside, but the fact that furniture and artworks are included in the price would be quite a turn-off for me, as they're not at all to my taste, so if I had £3m I'd have to budget the spare £900,000 on redecorating and furnishing it throughout...Apodemus said:

The property is owned (and IMHO ruined!) by the artist himself. His site is at: https://www.castlefineart.com/artists/stuart-mcalpine-miller I'm guessing he must be a very successful artist as (in the words of Dolly Parton) "It costs a lot of money to look this cheap"!TBagpuss said:https://search.savills.com/property-detail/gbedrseds170248 looks nice from the outside, but the fact that furniture and artworks are included in the price would be quite a turn-off for me, as they're not at all to my taste, so if I had £3m I'd have to budget the spare £900,000 on redecorating and furnishing it throughout...0 -
