8 bedrooms.
6 bathrooms.
Tennis court and village attached.
Unfortunately the video link just goes to an auction site, clearly to keep plebs like us from gawping inside too much.

PP for change to residential use. What happens to the graves in the garden? Sunbathe amongst the ghosts? Seems a bit unsavoury to stick a trampoline over them.FreeBear said:Alliersv said:https://www.rightmove.co.uk/properties/127748639#/?channel=RES_BUY
Spotted the For Sale sign outside this place and thought I'd pop online for a nose.

At least the neighbours wouldn't bother you!
ETA I just realised my post seems to have linked the wrong place, unless I'm going mad.
It was this one...

It's got a 45 foot garage! What for, did the previous owner have a stretch limo? The decoration doesn't exactly fit with that image.

Double garage, one in front of the other, in the days when people actually put a car in the garage. Or space to park the car and still space to work. If you have the room why not? It looks like it was a once loved home.Liz1966 said:

I wonder if it still works, up there in the heat? I knew someone who had one of those which sang, "Bad to the Bone." It's funny, I remember the fish, not the person. It's probably best they don't know Billy was more memorable than they were!BikingBud said:
