A more niche method of fking up a nice old house. Looks like a 1990s Best Western inside. Most saddening. Probably cost a fortune to do all that too.

Bonus Greek lyre stencilled on the bog seat.





Been on for yonks, has had a few price cuts along the way. Now £1.7M.

Location may be a little too Gatwicky for some.

Not horrendous when landing but when taking off East, aircraft noise in Copthorne is seriously loud.

[Harry Flashman]

Shame. If noise weren't bad, I'd be on that like a dog eating hot mince. Easy to sort out the interior - you should have seen our place when we bought it.

Probably worth about the same as our house in SW2, but a tonne more convenient for flights to Geneva, and the mountains of France. And I like West Sussex.

But Lady F won't let us move out of London, so all a bit moot.

Just goes to show that some people shouldn’t be allowed to buy a period property.

Here's a good example of absolutely ruining updating a harmless Grade II house to make it look like a Malmaison hotel. I can just imagine the slimeball flipping burgers on the massive grill, gold Rolex Daytona glinting in the sun.

I wouldn't be surprised to discover they paid a Larry Larry-Bowen to do that interior. *shudder*

There's nothing quite like being buzzed by chinooks when trying to relax with a G&T

Husband of a colleague of mine has had an offer accepted to buy this:

Has potential to be properly epic.

Has potential to bankrupt.

[FourWheelDrift]

It looks very leaky as the interior photos prove.

But it should be ok, it doesn't rain much in Scotland.

somewhat rustic.... http://www.rightmove.co.uk/overseas-property/prope...

Pretty sure that was on Grand Designs, took them 7 years to renovate.

Edit to say it's not!

Apologies if been on already. Apparently James Martin's place - kitchen looks nothing like his 'home kitchen' on the telly.

[FourWheelDrift]

He's a chef on the edge.

"Whilst the current owner designed it for his particular requirements..."

Indeed.
