Add the optional paddock and it's all the house I'd ever need.
I keep looking at houses where they've split the plot up to sell it for more. For some reason it annoys me, I don't want to buy a huge house with a relatively small garden and a potential building plot next to it.But Aldbrough is a very nice little village though. Apart from the murders. Or was that Melsonby?
We looked at an old farm in Middleton Tyas a few months ago, the agents has split the land off into two parcels, one with all the outbuildings in (which for me is the only reason for buying a farm) so that you'd need to buy the house and a parcel of land to have anything worth having.
You then risk somebody buying the rest of the land for purposes which completely ruin your enjoyment of your bit (especially if they have access over your bit).
It turned out the house had some serious issues and wasn't mortgageable so the whole lot went to sealed bids and was sold to a developer.
And it was Melsonby that had the murder
http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-york-north-yo...Next week (19th) the €4.95m Château de Blancafort (dating from 1453) goes under he hammer with no reserve. So it will sell for whatever the highest or lowest bid is.

I wonder what it goes for.

We've had him before. I've walked one of my dogs on the other side of the Thames to that and admired.I'd give someone else left knacker to be able to afford the place. It's an absolute delight.

It's also practically attached to the next door house, and what on earth is the derelict site at the end of the road? It's got executive housing estate written all over it...
Not quite, this will be going there - http://www.medmenhamcourt.com/FourWheelDrift said:

When this was featured in Country Life, my mum told me it was famous for it's exclusive sex parties in decades past (hot tub, anyone?). How she knows this, i do not know... but has anyone else heard this/ been to one? If it has such a profile, i assume a famed former owner.
I am sure I read about those get togethers in the brochure when this first appeared!! Sounds fun!!
