Which would you buy?

I would probably go for this one:

I like the arched front and huge backyard.

You can spend less than the £1 million but no more. Go, go, go...

I really wonder about who lives in the ginormous Scottish Mansions. How do they spend their days, where do they school their kids. Love this thread as I’m thinking of leaving London. Inspiring to see what could be possible.

This is the only one I like out of 57 in my area Blush www.rightmove.co.uk/property-for-sale/property-66190368.html

And here I am telling at the TV when they are picky on property shows when they have all that money to spend

We bought our three bed ex-HA house in autumn last year for £70k.

I’d buy the whole area and be the queen Grin

sageandroses · 05/04/2020 12:26

I would have either this

The Knoll, Barmoor, Morpeth

Or this

The Dairy, Longhirst, Morpeth
www.rightmove.co.uk/property-for-sale/property-65216766.html

But would change a lot of the grey in the second one!

Not mad about the kitchen but the house is gorgeous (though overpriced) and it's a nice location.

@Cherrysoup

Going to have a bidding war with you on that one Grin

Cherrysoup · 05/04/2020 18:11

@SudokuQueen

Isn’t it fab?! You can get houses over that way for silly money, with stabling and paddocks. I can see my horse being really happy there. Obviously, I’d have to get him some friends....

That’s gorgeous. Fight you for it lol lol 😂

MrsPworkingmummy · 05/04/2020 18:21

I don't know whether I'd buy either of these, but they've recently been advertised for sale and are across the road from my house. They'd both formerly been owned by a private school which has since closed. Right in the city centre, next to beautiful parks, but I think I'd want more garden for the money. I absolutely adore the Northumbrian houses already posted, especially those in Alnwick and Morpeth.

@Cherrysoup

Obviously! But two friends at least do that the other one isn't lonely while you take one away to ride. Grin I was trying to find a house with an indoor arena then saw you'd posted one.

tulipsrus · 05/04/2020 18:28

That’s lovely
I have their bathroom wallpaper !

Barkingfuckingdogs · 05/04/2020 18:39

Pony - Wow! That house is fabulous. Whoever put the interior together is very talented indeed. I'm personally not mad on the bathrooms but thats just personal preference. The neighbours are just a bit too close aswell.

Beach Lawn, Liverpool, Merseyside, L22

I wouldn’t actually buy this, it’s grade 2 listed and terraced. But its an amazing house

Wolfgirrl · 05/04/2020 19:29

@sageandroses we have very similar tastes! Beautiful both of them!

MamaJules34 · 05/04/2020 19:33

@phivephatphish £500k?

Oh another one of those... property is going to drop! Keep dreaming! Wink

MamaJules34 · 05/04/2020 19:36

Gosh, can just about get a 3 bed where I live for a mil!

sageandroses · 05/04/2020 19:38

@Wolfgirrl great minds!

I'd get this one near me, would take the stables too! Not my dream home by far, but its close enough to the kids school and alright. That'll do me.

Runnerduck34 · 05/04/2020 21:17

Hopefully link works, £1m doesnt seem to go far here so I've spread the net slightly further, would need some money for decorating and new bathroom.
Some absolutely stunning houses posted, maybe if i had £1m we'd need to leave south east!

Cherrysoup · 05/04/2020 21:17

@SudokuQueen I was thinking 3, so I can ride out with a mate and leave 2 behind. I might have to get some shitlands, although mine is scared of them! 😂🐴

SudokuQueen · 05/04/2020 21:26

@Cherrysoup

Everyone is scared of shitlands 😂
