4 bedroom farm house for sale in Wakefield Road, Doncaster, South Yorkshire, DN6 (rightmove.co.uk) enjoy!
By the time you have spent another £200k fitting it out the total expenditure will be far more than the property is worth.

It is the same here in Worksop. There are some beautiful old manor houses that are just not worth a lot of money because they are in Worksop. Pick them up and taken them 25 miles down the road to Sheffield and they would be worth two or three times as much.3 -

Kind of reducing potential buyers there!9 -

It is being marketed by the owners, using Doorsteps. Maybe, they worry that buyers might not understand how to work the house, rather than just being a bit precious about their creation?confused.com2 said:https://www.rightmove.co.uk/properties/109660172#/This really made me laugh, the description more than the pictures!
