Here's mine. Not weird but certainly wonderful. The panelled room is my fave.

This one? Not sure if it's for sale.

MaelyssQ · 01/02/2021 20:12

@JMAngel1

Goodness, the price of that Abersoch one is obscene - it looks like a mobile home.
Is that the one I posted? The static caravan on the edge of the cliff for 1.5 million?
CorvusPurpureus · 01/02/2021 20:12

Trying again!

MaelyssQ · 01/02/2021 20:16

This would be a nice family house. What time is the Euromillions draw tomorrow?

Oh I know that one. Used to drive along that road regularly. sigh

This is 5 miles to me. I played the Euro millions a few months ago so I could buy this! Of course I didn't win though.

Not sure why it's still on the market as it's been on for months, maybe there's a catch to it...

I like old windpumps. Very Norfolk!

Has been run to accept paying visitors. Seriously muddy area, mind.

The mist unusual is probably this one. The inside is a bit disappointing, but potentially lovely.

TawnyPippit · 01/02/2021 20:47

This literally will make your eyes bleed.

It has been on the market for quite a while...

@MaelyssQ
Yes, the one on edge of cliff - how is it that price? I appreciate the views would be out of this world but the house itself isn't great.

lboogy · 01/02/2021 20:54

I don't understand the point of buying a castle. You have rooms you'd never go into. Only makes sense of the whole family moves in

Merename · 01/02/2021 21:04

I’m an old house kind of girl but as far as new builds go this is pretty cool www.rightmove.co.uk/properties/67918659#/

Merename · 01/02/2021 21:06

Wow @TawnyPippit, that is wild! Gardens look pretty amazing but the rest - not sure what to say!

DebbieFiderer · 01/02/2021 21:15

Can't decide whether I prefer the POA or the £22mil (£3mil per bedroom!)

I've seen that on telly. Something like silent witness or similar.

CherryValanc · 01/02/2021 21:27

This is my favourite used to pass it on the way to work (back when I left the house for work)

www.myhome.ie/residential/brochure/sakura-110-churchtown-road-lower-dublin-14-d14-w7c1/4420386

It's very "unique" and has been on the market forever. It's come down in price significantly.

That’s a lot of trainers!!

MiniTheMinx · 01/02/2021 23:58

lekkerkroketje I think that's one of the nicest interiors I've seen. Do you think they'd leave the furniture. Its beautiful.

Saz12 · 02/02/2021 00:46

Some rooms are lovely, but WTF were they thinking with that god-awful extension????

And the description is wierd, waxing lyrical about the plumbers. Maybe normal if v v posh?

This is weird not wonderful, it’s a pub... like in the middle of nowhere - as in, it’s not walking distance to anywhere, it’s basically in fields and it isn’t a nice country type pub either.

Also, see all those cars in the car park - they’re always there and the lights are always on too, including the sign.

I keep trying to work out if people are living in it (there are no bedrooms) or if it’s done sort of speakeasy type thing, lol

tobee · 02/02/2021 03:04

The trouble with all these posh gaffs with their home cinemas and lush seating is I'd be off to kip before the titles finished rolling!

They obviously wanted some kind of country Italian retreat but couldn’t afford it, very OTT🤣
