Looks like a typical blank canvas "developers" finished project with some hired furniture.

Yup. Has all the cliches, right down to the fire with stones in it. Depressing. Looks like a decent gaff from the outside.

A few cans of emulsion & some decent carpets (or quality wooden floors) and it should start to look pretty good.

Oh, and some improved bathrooms too.

Sadly, there are far too many houses (many on this thread) that have befallen this fate.

Zoopla has the last sale as 1.55m in 2006, so someone's taken a bath, even if the 'E' in OIEO is generous..

My latest offering.

Who would live in a house like this?

http://www.rightmove.co.uk/property-for-sale/prope...

A chicken or a pig. With a horse for a neighbour.

Honestly, if you're going to convert some bog-standard agricultural buildings for residential use, at least try to make them look like they're no longer for livestock.

Fieldgrove house - One of Noel Edmonnd's

House with it's own karting track?

I believe the owner/seller founded a huge coach and bus business in Northern Ireland.

Wouldn't mind this place.

Used to live just up the road, now live just downstream. Needs a fair bit of work but could be lovely with a bit (ok, a lot) of investment, especially on the two sunny days we get each year.

The brickie that built the gates in pic 17 also built my front wall.

Some interesting history - past and more recent - with both the house and the residents there!

Nice house but decor looks very cheap.

I don't but you have now piqued my curiosity...

A quick google suggests that the Lady of the house was done for drink driving, and the Lord of the house was potentially involved in some sort of bank fraud

For sale near me.



Pics are a decade old, the house is falling apart, moreover titchy tiny with only 3 small bedrooms and no easy transport links to London.

Madness at £695k.

What a fantastic setting. Bang in the middle of your own nine-hole golf course

Oh my lord

"
THE GOLF COURSE is a challenging and well landscaped par three nine hole course set around the Farmhouse is a unique feature of the property."

It's a glorified pitch and putt, I have played this "course" years ago and couldn't Believe they required you to go around it with a bag, as all you need is a sand wedge and a putter. I remember aiming for the house when teeing off from the 9th

Saying that, it would be nice to have your own 9-hole golf course as a novelty factor. It's not far off the road though, and I think it would need a huge wall to maintain privacy from the main road - I think it's the road between Frimley and Woking from memory.

You can get a bit more privacy here. But you get a third of the holes and it costs eight times as much!

Click the "Floor Plan" tab.

I wonder if those glass doors open and close with a Star Trek whoosh?
