What could 1 million pounds buy you within 10 miles of where you live?

[Lanawashington]

Inspired by a recent thread that really made me realise how wildly different house prices are around the country

This is the highest listed one near me. A 5 bed barn conversion with nearly 2.5 acres of land

I much prefer where I am - this is bang in the middle of the town.

5 bed detached, no sea view though, only a 3 bed terraced in the most popular area though, pretty rough looking too that one. Right where I am it buys you a large modern detached

Within a 10 miles radius, I found :

4 bedroom detached house for sale in Royal Oak Lane, Pirton, Hitchin, SG5 (rightmove.co.uk)

or

5 bedroom semi-detached house for sale in Tring Road, Well Head, LU6 (rightmove.co.uk)

or this, which, to me, is more worthy of the £1m price tag
6 bedroom detached house for sale in Cross End, Wavendon, MK17 (rightmove.co.uk)

3 bed detached house. Not exactly what I pictured a millionaires house would be when I was young though (would expect a mansion with 10 bedrooms, swimming pool and tennis courts sigh)

This monstrosity with a block of flats overlooking the bathroom.

The "bunk beds" in photograph 9 are amazing!

Several that are a lot more than that

A 4 bed/3 bath wing of a country house that is wayyyy too close to the dual carriageway.

10 miles is a big range near me.

Anything from an unattractive 4 bed semi-detached house with a very small garden on the main road, to some really beautiful character properties with land, overlooking an area of natural beauty.

A very fancy schmancy apartment in one of the nicest areas of Glasgow

or a much more traditional 5 bed detached in the countryside. https://www.rightmove.co.uk/properties/138237752#/?channel=RES_BUY

The most expensive house around me for 10 miles is a 5 bed 3 bath for 550k. However if I go up to 3million I can get 8000 acres and a cliff.

Could buy this beachfront gem https://www.propertypal.com/856102

Or this one if you wanted to be closer to the city https://www.propertypal.com/931356

Half a street 😆

A courtyard development of 11 apartments if anyone fancies investing

This is highest listing https://www.rightmove.co.uk/properties/137475533?utm_campaign=property-details&utm_content=buying&utm_medium=sharing&utm_source=copytoclipboard#/&channel=RES_BUY

This place is on budget...https://www.rightmove.co.uk/properties/142563470?utm_campaign=property-details&utm_content=buying&utm_medium=sharing&utm_source=copytoclipboard#/&channel=RES_BUY
All that money for such a poorly laid out kitchen though!

In Bath-

A nice 3 bed end terrace is the big shocker. Surprised by how many there are around £5m really. I'm in the Midlands.

£1m wouldn't buy you an average house where I live.

This 6 bed detached with a 2 bed cottage and 3.5 acres.
its a bit near the main road though.
