Is it just me, or has Rightmove removed the broadband checker ?
One of the first things I check about a property

Yep On a desktop, you can click on "find the highest broadband speed", and then hover over the result to get a postcode, but on a tablet (Android, at least), the option has gone completely.

That ivy-smothered 'lean to' is home to the unphotographed kitchen... and would presumably need complete reconstruction.

I see, I see.

And that's a good thing?

I do genuinely suspect that people who think an each-way commute of that length is ok are mental.

Neither good, nor bad, just an observation. No suggestion by me of it being commutable. I agree with your assessment of people that entertain such a journey at each end of each day!

Lots of potential in this, but I suspect you need a big bank balance and balls to take it on:

High Street, Glinton, Peterborough

I just need an extra few hundred grand though.

I've never been entirely convinced by barn conversions, and the low beams, compromised detail and lack of garden in that one reminds me why.
There's much nicer out there for your million.

Not everyone commutes every day.

Once a week, once a fortnight, makes that an acceptably short trip.

My trips to the office are over 3hrs each way.

La Rotonda, in Cheshire:

[FourWheelDrift]

This is the original Henbury Hall - http://www.lostheritage.org.uk/houses/lh_cheshire_... new one built 1984-86.

[NomduJour]

Yes, the most modern of a number of UK houses after Villa Capra - Chiswick House, Mereworth Castle, Nuthall Temple, Foots Cray Place.

Not for me. Everytime I took a shower I'd st myself that Liam Neeson would be waiting to kill me when I got out.

That's rather lovely. Your old bedroom sucks though.
