The extension is like a piece of art or sculpture- great for parties etc. Most of the time you could live in original cottage.

The glass screens are the cleanest design I have seen.

Its good for the Cheese Rolling.

The location is a bit "rapey" and it fails the pub walk test.

5.5k for a week in June. Bit strong.

No kitchen extraction (that I can see) is a PITA.

It has a downdraft extractor hood - the black line buried in the worktop behind the hob. I've got one, it does this, and so takes away the need to have an imposing over head extractor, but still with the practicality of one;

Interesting to see that one is being used with a gas hob (not yours Tony) which, when we were looking around 6 years ago wasn't possible. In the end, we changed the design of the kitchen anyway so an overhead wasn't an issue.

Pub is 500m through the woods and out onto the common.

Pricing is v. strong.

I retract my previosu statement!! That is a pass.

I have bad memories of getting a boiled sweet stuck in my windpipe at the bottom of the hill in the Cranham Cub Camp. I had to run up the hill turning blue trying to find an adult to dislodge it. Makes me feel funny thinking about it!

Oh I didn't realise that was an issue? I imagine it was the heat? The whole stainless area on mine, when up, is literally that - pure stainless steel, and the area behind it just filters and more stainless - so it's either not a problem anymore on newer designs, or they just didn't know

For reference, I have the DHD-1100X (De-Dietrich), and it works great. You can see I went for a 4 x 1, 900mm wide hob so that you don't end up with the front pan further away from the sucking, if you see what I mean, that you would get on a normal 2 x 2 arrangement.

So where does that blow the exhaust out Tony? Does it go down through the floor and out a side wall?

[Mobile Chicane]

Justayellowbadge said:

Yep.

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

That's the st bit of Wimbledon too - right near the train depot.

It really isn't, though, there are many worse parts.

Plus, they put a Waitrose there. It's done wonders.

Very nice outside space:

That's only marginally more than we're paying for a 2 bed flat on the far outskirts of London. It's a different planet here.

[Dougan1]

Yes, which includes your opportunities for earning.

This is an interesting place. And check out picture 19!

is that meant to be the space shuttle or something??

You have a couple of options - one, as you say, to go down under the cupboards or under the floor and out a side wall. Or the second, which is what i do, is you have charcoal filters in there in addition to the regular ones and they remove the fatty deposits and the smell. You then recirculate to under the cupboards, and so out of it is coming clean air.

Something like that, yes

"A sizeable area of loft storage has been transformed into an amazing space ship for the kids."

[TonyHetherington]

It's a flight simulator, surely? Kids my arse! It even has the joystick, throttle, and monitors he uses to play them

This one on the Hamble really is all about the location.

The dining room, however, makes me feel sea-sick even before the food arrives.

My parents place looks over the Hamble from the other side of the river about that spot.

I love the way picture 10 casually shows his helicopter parked up on the lawn. As one does.

From Google earth the garden isn't very big and the house is very close to the neighbour. Is the helicopter photoshopped in?

Surely you couldn't land in such a small place without seriously annoying next door?!!

Looks like a nice yellow 911 in the front drive as well.
