£1.3m ok so it's offers over but I would not say no. Bit standard grey inside but an ok size garage.

Very cool location, though it's pretty noisy by the bridge. The trains are louder than you think.

To me there's no way that living under a bridge can possibly be pawn.

I thought about using the word myself, but decided against it.

Weird that they've spent the time getting a massive photo of the bridge and sticking it on the wall of the breakfast room, just to save them going outside and having a look. (IANAID)

Ah.... but the photo is from the West side of the bridge and the view from the house is from the East side. So there is the logic. :-)

That is a chuffin huge stove in its own little corral slap bang in the middle of the floor.

Far from a mega millions mansion and in need of some interior design work but that brickwork alone is enough to have me hooked...

Knock down and replace the conservatory (and introduce a more sympathetic kitchen) and this would be a strong contender in my eyes, nice place.

Good thing this place isn't under the bridge then

I've never seen a place with so many different 'styles' and periods of decoration.

And almost next door to the last one and a bit cheaper, but would benefit from a few £££ spend on it inside.

no moorings in the garden mind you.

Ok, now that is definitely pawn and a good example of a cracking house in that location, imo.

I dont dislike the place but it does go from cute olde world cottage to space age brand new kitchen.

Very confused in what it wants to be.

Not sure TBH - on balance I'd prefer tge rail bridge to the road and, IMO, I prefer the house too

road noise would be extreme surely.

[phil_cardiff]

Both of those are in severely compromised locations, for my taste, and wouldn't make it onto my theoretical shopping lists.

I love a waterside house, but I'd be damned if I want to live by a busy road or railway.

No that is the old Road Bridge, about 3 busses and 7 taxis an hour use it

This is local to me, rural enough but between 2 OK little towns, no road noise from main roads, decent garaging.

https://www.rightmove.co.uk/properties/123714056#/...

I know that location well, saw this when it came up. Really lovely place, I just find the land a bit bleak around there? Bit of an arse in the summer too for tourists, but I'm being picky. It's still too much for the area, but I'm sure it will sell. Love the driveway/garaging.
