I'd start with our own tbh.

Starseeking · 05/01/2024 20:52

This.

This is my next house.

It'll cost me just under half of my winnings.

Bargain at twice the price.

@DinoRodney I love the staircase in the isle of Bute one.

@DinoRodney I love the staircase in the isle of Bute one.

That island is my happy place, there’s a whole lot of properties I would buy - realistically though I’d go for something more modern, less likely to be a money pit.

That Stirling house is amazing but too far from the station to be feasible.
this is my current list and I think it’s been reduced since it first went on the market. I’m still gutted they removed all the ivy from the outside. Will spend the rest of my winnings sympathetically renovating it. https://espc.com/property/12-east-fettes-avenue-comely-bank-edinburgh-eh4-1dn/36181914?sid=625363

I've been visiting Kew Gardens and watching Ted Lasso recently, so fancy something in Kew or Richmond.

This would do nicely.

Now this I could live with!

OlderGlaswegianLivingInDevon · 05/01/2024 22:31

Oh my goodness - do other people have a shortlist of houses they would like ?

I thought it was just me :)

I have no idea how to include Right Move links on here ( or anywhere to be fair )

However I have a 4 bed in Cornwall shortlisted, and I did spot an even older property nearish to the Lake District - came with a title !

I can just see my colleagues faces in the supermarket I work in when I give in my notice as LadyOlderGlaswegianLivingInDevon :)

and of course one just has to have a London property doesn't one ?!!!

Op I would never buy one huge house.. I'd rather have a few flats and houses world wide or just have two bases and live in hotels.

determinedtomakethiswork · 05/01/2024 23:41

I'm always really surprised at people saying they want these huge mansions. I just don't think they'd feel homely at all.

True, but not many 3-bed semis come with a Harrier jet in the back garden.

JesusMaryAndJosephAndTheWeeDon · 05/01/2024 23:45

Oooh I didn't know it was a rollover but how convenient when I have just seen the perfect house with stables and manège 🤔

ifIwerenotanandroid · 05/01/2024 23:59

Ooh, the colour brochure's still up. Heavenly, eh?
