I have a converted school room. Loft room, two bedrooms, mezannine (all small), then big big big living room, and kitchen downstairs.

But in a couple of months, we'll have knocked through, and have two loft rooms, four bedrooms, one mezannine, two big living rooms, kitchen and laundry room. Two front doors, and one back one.

Have a 1920's doublefronted house to which we added a HUGE 2 storey extension on the side and back. 4 double bedrooms (2 ensuite), 1 study, 1 family bathroom, lounge, big open plan kitchen/dining/family area, utility room, loo, playroom. I'm a lucky girl!!!!

Merlin · 01/03/2006 14:58

but refering to the toilet cleaning thread - there's too many to clean!!!!!

Its upsidedown with 3 floors, kitchen and living area upsatirs (and balcony), then bathroom and study, then all bedrooms downstairs. You enter in the middle.

My house is the same age as me Wink

Detached 4 bed. From the outisde looks good but belies the crappy interior of cat shredded wallpaper and half finished or not even started decorating projects.

FrayedKnot · 01/03/2006 15:05

I love houses which are not standard in that way MMH.

Much more interesting.

bubblerock · 01/03/2006 15:06

I'm guessing we have the biggest Grin

CountessDracula · 01/03/2006 15:06

NdeP I thought you had just bought a Georgian house - am I wrong?

We have 4 bed Edwardian house

CountessDracula · 01/03/2006 15:06

ooh do tell Bubblerock....

I reckon pph would win if it is down to size.

NomDePlume · 01/03/2006 15:07

CountessD - It fell through Sad & Angry. Our buyers were complete tosspieces . Back on the market.....

NomDePlume · 01/03/2006 15:07

Bubblerock has a hotel !

but presumably the guests stay in the rooms not bubblerock and her family Grin

Where is your hotel? Do tell more!

madmarchhare · 01/03/2006 15:08

Oh yes FK, thats why we bought it, still needs loads doing though. I think the other Royal family lived here before us.

NomDePlume · 01/03/2006 15:10

It's still Bubblerock's name on the property deeds though, CD Wink

bubblerock · 01/03/2006 15:17

LOL - yep, we just live in the servants quarters at the top of the house Grin. For 6 months of the year we have the whole place to rattle around in -

13 bedrooms, 3 toilets, 2 bathrooms, 1 shower, 1 bar, 1 dining room & a bedsit (my Mum lives there) - we bought it jointly and are trying to decide what to do next year as it wasn't a long term thing, so we either sell it as a hotel or me and DH buy mum out and either run it as a hotel or change the use - It's way to big to be a family home and we'd need to get an £80,000 mortgage which would be a bit scary!! Shock

2 bed, second floor flat you can't swing a dead cat in.

bubblerock · 01/03/2006 15:22

Sunny old Blackpool Grin (I'm not a local though, originally from Glos)

trix1 · 01/03/2006 15:34

80K is very good for all of that - you would not get a bedsit in the midlands for that.

Bozza · 01/03/2006 15:36

Hmmm wonder if br meant 800K - because 80K seems like really little.

GDG · 01/03/2006 15:36

Mine's not the smallest or biggest so no point describing it Grin

ssd · 01/03/2006 15:38

man, tiny.

2 bed terraced, tiny rooms, no room for anything, desperately need extension, can't afford one.
