PLEASE READ BEFORE POSTING: Hello Forumites! 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. Threads that are found to have derailed into wider discussions may be removed. Users who repeatedly disregard this may have their Forum account banned.

Yep- that island would have to sink beneath the waves pronto.... in general, a very 'Homes under the Hammer' style flip however isn't it? Just needs some LED lighted twigs in a vase and a set of those 'EAT' 'SLEEP' wooden signs....

I could be quite nostalgic for those twigs in vases: we used to see them so often but do not recall any recently (or perhaps I'm just inured to the sight so they are no longer "visible").Skiddaw1 said:briskbeats said:

Small world, that was my late aunty Gwen's house, I thought it had already been demolished. I spent every Boxing Day there as a child.FreeBear said:... And for something a little cheaper... https://www.rightmove.co.uk/properties/110070842#/May require some work.
