Wow! What an absolutely stunning garden, I wonder if the owners keep that so beautiful or if a professional goes in regularly. We stayed just outside Wirksworth earlier this year, it’s got amazing countryside around it.joho said:This is so old-fashioned it is amazing. Look at the bath. I would buy it just for that covered terrace at the back!

Although I can't stand old-fashioned, twee interiors so it's far from my cup of tea, I have to say it looks immaculately kept and cleaned, and much more appealing than the grey rabbit hutches that developers think we all desire now,
Mind you the WC in the garage that you have to leave the house to access is a disaster, and probably prevents a car from getting in there.1 -
Was it in the video tour that you can see a truck/trailer with branches - as though they had recently smartened up the garden for the video?lady1964 said:

Who remembers stippling?
If you have nothing constructive to say just move along.7 -
Yes, did a lot of stippling back in the day
It's quite a knack to achieve something that doesn't look like the cat walked across it.3 -
Another timewarp property - apart from the kitchen. I do quite like the downstairs though:

Reasonably tasteful modernised bathroom - though smallish for 4 bedrooms and given the overall size of the house.spo2 said:Another timewarp property - apart from the kitchen. I do quite like the downstairs though:

I worked in a property that had stairs like that but only 3 steps up to the half landing. The original idiot electrician decided the little wall under the half landing was a good place for the consumer unit. To get to it you had to crawl very flat under a very low floor. totally stupid.0
