What does your house look like?

[bernhund]

My place lends itself to Christmas...the rest of the year it is freezing cold, expensive to heat, expensive to keep and in need of a shed load of cash spending on the stone. It has left me skint but I'd rather live in it than have all the money I've spent keeping it, in the bank.

That looks very special indeed Bernhund. Any more pics please?

Can believe how many central Scotland posters I've never seen in the Scottish section of the forum - you do know there is one? http://www.pistonheads.com/gassing/forum.asp?h=0&a...

Mine on the left:



It's got very old subsidence but it's not quite as bad as it looks in that pic!

So if yours is the "manor house", what does that make the one over the wall? ;-)

The gardener's house obviously.

thank pink house across the way must really piss you off!

• Sigh - I wish I could say it doesn't bother me and that people are free to paint their own houses whatever colour they want etc but truth is it bugs the absolute fk out of me! I'm considering posting a few Dulux brochures through their letterbox as a hint FFS

The rather modest pile of bricks and mortar I call home looks a little like this (amateur attempt with Google Sketchup). The additional parking space at the front is an idea which hasn't materialised yet. In fact it won't now, as we're planning on moving and upsizing next year, all being well.

Here is a Sketchup I did for a Norwegian friend a couple of years ago. It started out he wanted me to draw up the little square hut in the for ground, but then he wanted his house adding...in ever increasing detail. I'm quite proud of it.

Luckily we are at work offshore so there was plenty of free time.



I also did our own house.







And it came out quite well.





I don't seem to have any decent pics of it fully finished.

That is "the red house", it was council offices until it was converted into apartments a few years ago.
The are two other Manor houses in the village; East End Manor, and Durrington Manor. I am in West End Manor. Durrington Manor is really nice. East End Manor is on Rightmove and is pretty earthy.
The gardener lives in a bungalow.
