I don't understand this property at all. Just off Deptford High Street too, not where one would expect there would be a big market for 1.75 mil properties. It also seems big and small at the same time. And wtf is that chain on the table!?
Used to go there a lot as a kid as it was very local to a girl I fancied and just down the road from my school. I lived in Deptford from 1952 to about 1972 and nothing would make me want to go back and live there ever again. It's a sI don't understand this property at all.

thole and I, personally, would require the full asking price just to go and see it.rlw said:

Extra heating not going to waste.
I thought it was a relatively common thing to be honest with woodburner flues for that reason. Can't say I was ever tempted with the aesthetics of that. Surely must be a burn risk when its sat halfway into the room with no chuffing fire beneath it suggesting your should keep clear..Shnozz said:

I should imagine fitting it that way takes a truckload more work and more cost.

If you click enlarge on the rightmove photo you see the fire stop plate at the bottom.

We had the twin-wall chimney for our woodburner go up through our bedroom but in the corner and boxed in with plenty of space around the pipe. The boxing in had vents top and bottom and it worked very well with no need for heating to go on in the bedroom. That installation shown would not pass any inspection I guess due to the risks stated.

Ergonomically that’s a nightmare to live with. But then again I had a Caterham so many friends / family still have burn marks on their left inner calves. Their injuries never made me consider changing the car

Haven't looked at great depth but looks as though that is through the master bedroom from the floor plans too. Guess at least that limits child risk and is the primary room you want warm upstairs, but given the bedroom sizes that must hugely limit the room layout.
As people have said, all very strange just to get a little residual flu heat into the (small) bedroom. Would have been easy to go through the external wall and I would have thought that small room would get warm enough from the heat below without any flu passing through.

Awful road in an awful area. I’d save 750k and get an older 3 bed penthouse flat in millennium quay. Right on the Thames waters edge. Much better!
I live in Milennium Quay, can't work out why anyway would spend a million quid for a flat here! Sure, it's a lovely development, and a nice place to live, but a million quid?! Our two bed rented flat is 750k, which is far too much, despite being quite nice with a stunning view of the Wharf. We viewed a few flats in the development at around £450k, and they were properly tiny.
700k for this - zoopla.co.uk/for-sale/details/52167437
Saying that, the 1.3m quid penthouse flat that was up a few weeks ago has either sold or been de-listed ...
