Thread related; a client of mine placed an order a few months ago for some bespoke furniture and I got the delivery address through today -Windlesham Court, Surrey - not sure which property it is yet but I'm hoping it's the fabled Updown Court as I would quite like a look round it.

nope, Updown Court isn't on Windlesham Court here - https://www.google.com/maps/place/Windlesham+Ct,+S...

Go southeast from there and it's on the B386 Chertsey Road.

I see; it was one of the only few results I could see from a quick google. Don't think it's the £20m new build either as the stuff they've ordered is classic, but then what was there may have been a ripout and start again job - wouldn't be the first time.

More specifically JAYB, (and I realise this wouldn't be immediately obvious from a Learjet) but that part of Wales is something of a accumulation point for scousers and brummies who find themselves displaced from their estate due to domestic or gang-related difficulties, and subsequently... (deep breath) breed.

Aren't you thinking of Rhyl? Welshpool is more likely to attract Brummies.

I'm genuinely amazed - an asking if almost five million pounds for a terraced house in sands end. It's not even in pretty or nice bit, and that junction 100m away on new kings road is bad. Faces a busy bit of road as well with buses passing constantly. Cool garage mind you.

quite OK

Small in comparison to most houses posted here, but this is a kind of property that does it for me...

Brantôme, Dordogne, France
http://www.rightmove.co.uk/overseas-property/prope... - A snip over £180,000!

Very pretty town, too

not a fan of the house but the 30 car garage makes up for it

Or £3.5m for this (leaving £1.5m change for a nice car collection )

I know where my money would go!

When I saw that, I was surprised that it cost 'only' 2.9 million. Very close neighbours though but lovely views.

That fake bookcase wall paper is incredibly naff in a house of this value.....

It's awful isn't it. The ceilings are very low too given the supposed grandeur of the place - sweeping stairs and a 7'6" ceiling height

I presume that it's the new toy that every high spec house "needs". That wallpaper though

Could live in:

Seems to have the sports centre behind it, I'd have to visit before I made a decision I guess...

Still doesn't beat my current favourite locally though, which I may have mentioned before:

[StuTheGrouch]

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

It is all spectacular, especially the kitchen area and that conservatory (which is bigger than a lot of flats)

[StuTheGrouch]

25 flats for £2 million anyone?

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

If I had the money that would be one of the safest buy-to-let investments I could imagine, to get 25 flats bringing in almost £170k a year in rent.
