Another property porn thread - find the house of your dreams that you COULD afford

In your current position.

Clearly there needs to be some element of fantasy eg the house I would love is probably in Wales or Scotland but then I would earn 20p a year

So the house can be anywhere
but you would have to be able to raise the mortgage on it in your current circs
