This is lovely. It reminds me of a house I saw on a TV drama in the 90s 'Coming Home' it was based on Rosamund Pilcher's novel about two friends at boarding school. One lived in a house like this and invited her friend to stay who was orphaned. I was so jealous of the huge girls bedroom with en suite 🙂

Lovely but a bit big. You'd need staff to manage it and I wouldn't want that.

Oh that's true about the staff. It also doesn't have a swimming pool which is a bit of a disadvantage.

That is one lovely house. Although just furnishing it appropriately would be such a task.
It would make a fantastic house for a multigenerational or blended family. So much space for everyone.
And so cheap compared to south east prices for tiny boxes.
But what I particularly love is the drive. What a thrill to turn in through the electrically operated gates at the end of the day.
But it would be wasted on just me and DH so I wont put in a bid for it.

It's lovely. So much house for the price.

Am I reading this correct, its a semi detatched with some garden and land but the grounds are communal?

Looking at the images vs floor plans, it may be more mid terrace.

Looking at the sold nearby there are masses of properties attached/ in the complex. Flats, stables, barns, mews, lanterns, coach house, sion house 2 etc.

Lovely, but a little clichéd perhaps. And when their furniture goes, it will take a lifetime to replace.

As soon as I saw the staircase I thought "I'm in". I would spend hours walking up and down it dragging my hands along the bannisters, sitting on the steps, bumping down on my bum. Oh the enjoyment I could have.
