What does 1/2 million buy you where you live?

The bungalow doesn't have much kerb appeal but looks kind of okay. Until you realise the A46 is 150m from the back garden across open fields.

It's a bit of an accident black spot too, usually big smashes, which isn't ideal.

The village has also flooded in recent years; apparently (according to an estate agent trying not very hard to sell me a house) they opened some gate to prevent Winchcombe flooding and that caused it. I'd imagine in the same circumstances they would look to save Winchcombe again.

It's all about local knowledge, one can find utter bargains, usually a reason though.

Nothing at all. Cheapest near me is http://www.rightmove.co.uk/property-for-sale/prope...

I beg your pardon. Nothing whatsoever? Is your search radius thirty feet or something?

I love the title for that property.

'House'

Glad they're so descriptive!

Well you could also describe it as garage.

If you search in Hull then the only property between 475k and 550k is a block of flats.

Going slightly further afield there is a 15acre small holding, a lovely Victorian 3 story terrace house, or something like this in one of the most expensive villages near town;

Closer to home now, 500k gets you a boring 1960's 4 bed detached house

Preferring the Hull home but it looks like you're a neighbour

I found this property on the Rightmove Android app and wanted you to see it: http://www.rightmove.co.uk/s6p/77003942

But wtf you need more than 500. More like 800 to live around there.

What’s wrong with that one? It looks good for £500k to me (although I don’t know the area).

It’s been on the market for months, so perhaps will sell for less?

That does look amazing value. Midlands money.

One from my area....

Some thing doesn't add up, 152sqm gross internal floor plan. It just doesn't look that big despite the attic rooms.

That looks fantastic value, getting upstairs looks awkward though.
