It actually frings a junction, with a bus route on it. The park in question is a 10 minute walk away.

Good grief. 350k for a poncey portakabin.

I sense a leg-pull.

If it was April the 1st I'd think it was a joke.

That's more than double what my 3 bed house with a massive garden is worth.

Is that a joke? Forest Hill? You couldn't pay me to live there, but you could buy my house in a nice Zone 4 suburb, within a mile of a tube station for that much. That plot would fit in my garden. My garage is bigger than that. It's a joke right?

It's Forest Hill/Honor Oak Park on the fringes of East Dulwich. On the upside it's been on sale for 3 weeks and is not under offer yet.

I go by there occasionally and have never noticed it. Next time I'm going to look out for it and marvel.

Would banks give a mortgage of that valuation though?

50shadesofmeh · 09/09/2013 08:26

That costs more than double my detached 4 bedroom with a summer house that size in the garden

Drove past this today. It really is just a big shed - those photos are very well done as the place is tiny.

Well they've now dropped the price by £25k to £325,000. Perhaps they haven't had many viewings as people are not keen to pay a huge sum to live in a glorified shed.

omg, what the hell?

More evidence of the end of times - a new opportunity to buy a mini house for a bargain price. Close to the other bargain shed which does not appear to be on the market anymore.

Ugly as fuck. It looks like a primary school portakabin from the front.

That second one is revolting too - £450k? Hilarious but then I have no idea what the competition goes for in that area and it does have a private garden and no upstairs/downstairs neighbour noise that you'd get in a conversion or flat situation.

My question is who are these people who can afford to buy these properties??!

I started a thread a while ago about London prices as my neighbour sold her house for nearly £70,000 more than we paid for ours only a few years ago (and I've been inside, it is nice, but not an extra £70,000 worth of nice!). We are talking a stand EOT, two up two down with a backyard increasing by that amount in less than 3 years. Shocking.
