Still not sold. Still don't understand why not. Wonderfully original and unmessed-with, great size, enough land, but not too much. Likely needs some spend, being knocking 200 yo, but worth it, surely? Is it the farm opposite?

Now I tend to ignore price for posts in this thread but understand it does provide a talking point.... but to be honest I would have expected more for my £9.5M - perhaps wrong thread?

And I don't think it is finished - so definitely out!

Very few redeeming features there for me - and a comedy price tag. https://www.rightmove.co.uk/properties/147444827#/...

^Google Maps satellite view shows the house under construction - nice spot, but not anything like the asking price. Also, the “phase 2 annexe” is very close to the main house - so much so that it feels cramped, not luxuriant. The photography isn’t great - too close in on stuff, not showing the building that you would be buying - pics 5 & 10 are virtually the same. Yes, 7+ acres, but all the action is in one small corner of the plot.
The EPC is poor for such a new house as well…
I think it is worth about a third of the guide price,.

It's in the middle of nowhere, miles from any big urban job based location or railway lines for commuting to them so limiting purchasers to home workers or those who are retiring and would any retiree want to take it on?https://www.rightmove.co.uk/properties/137646281#/...
A couple of expensive Cotswold places put on by Savilles this week.

That is rather nice.It boggles the mind slightly to consider just how big the gap between rich and poor was 'in ye olde days', although I guess you'd struggle to build the place now for, what, probably double that price? So still ridiculously expensive compared to pleb wages. lol

Maybe £20m yeah.
I’ve just done for a client although not stone externally and it ended up similar and was about 16k sqft.

I'd be concerned with privacy from the god botherer's and the upkeep of the church roof.
House stairs left, church stairs right.
Indeed, you can see on the street view they have had to put signs up telling people it's a private house and gardens etc...so they must get issues with people wandering about the gardens and grounds. House stairs left, church stairs right.
For me the Malmsbury one would be my pick.

Those 2 put that stty £10M barn thing in perspective.
I agree, however of course running costs impact on the value of the ones posted above. Christ knows how much you’d have to spend on them each year. Sway said:

That frontage looks like it should be symmetrical but someone only did one side.https://www.rightmove.co.uk/properties/137646281#/...
