Property porn - 'probably the finest Edwardian house in York' with a Gertrude Jekyll garden

[Northernlurker]

now all I need is 1.5 miliion

so naff

The Cockermouth one has three summer houses. Excellent!

Babbity Imagine the cleaning bill, you'd need another £70mill!

sorry, I meant that I meant 'so naff' not 'no naff', not that TSAP's durty weekend was naff

Figment... I know - at least a couple of years. I feel a bit sorry for the property developer - I believe it was built to someone's specifications (Russian oligarch or someone like that) who then pulled out. Vile isn't it?

Oh. My. Lord. At the windlesham one . I don't think I'll be saving.

My dirty weekend was fab actually figment

Goodness me ! Just how busy is the ceiling on pic 3 ?!

Lovely location.

This one is pretty if you want to live in a posh part of Glasgow (yes there are posh parts in Glasgow!) but it will be newish aged to look far older.

70 million anyone

It is truly revolting babbity. The developer must be sh*tting themselves in the current climate having that millstone around his/her neck. I hate the think what the repayments on the loan taken to build the vile gin palace are [blanche]

The Huntington one is down the road from my mum.

I went to several garden parties there as a child.

'Tis lovely, but is opposite t'Social Club everyone stands outside, directly opposite the property to smoooooke their faaaaaaags.

TSAP, that's the same one as babbity linked to. More gaudy pics on your link though !

Ooh babbity we have the same one, cant believe it is back on the market again.

It was bought by an iron magnate or similar.

sleepycat - my mates mum grew up in bearsden, she thought she was the dogs kahunas.

LOL it was year ago but has transformed itself these last few years, a cheap house is about £350K+

oh, sorry sleepyeyes I got your name wrong. I'm sure Bearsden is lovely but mates mum was a snobby witch an acquired taste

I love Jekyll gardens. There is one at Hestercombe House near here. Beeeeeootiful.

Got as far as the third which i LOVE...Northernlurker..I want the 3rd house.The 1st 2 look like they could be a tad drafty.

Is Updown Court still not sold? With the Bond baddie interior I'm not surprised...

The Arts & Crafts house is lovely.

The St Saviour Gate house is also lovely but down from £1.2 million to £1 million. We want to buy in York so we look over these sorts of houses every week.

I do not think we have seen the bottom of the price fall yet in the York market though.
