I'm trying to get my head round things. The green areas aren't gardens, are they? They're paddocks for 4-legged things, right? So it doesn't really matter if they're not right outside your "house". In a way, the furthest one is the best because it's nearer to the road for loading up?

Sheep maybe, but you wouldn't be able to keep a horse properly on that scrap of land - kids football pitch?
Bit pointless all round really.

Yep, certainly not something I'd consider even if it were within my budget.

F***ing hell that's a mess....reminds me of some of the accommodation I stayed in during my time in the military. Look at what you can get for £1.3 million in Shropshire or Scotland and then look at that eyesore again. It truly deserves its place in this thread...what a waste of money.

So the barns do have different layouts, that one has no shared bathroom for bedroom 5 just the useless open space landing, the one earlier on the VR walkthrough was different and the plan on the earlier advert was for this one.

As with (almost!) any house there are aspects of that I like - however the aspects I actively dislike far outweigh the positives. And that's before you get to the price

[FourWheelDrift]

So I'm guessing build costs for those 3, probably £600,000 each. Sell two to cover your costs, 3rd is all profit.

I would guess: sell one to cover all of your costs, excluding land.

Now I've heard of two ovens before, but three? Really ?

Some interesting sold prices on the postcode (MK18 3LA) from 2-3 years ago...might be the build plot but sold for £875k in 2019. Looks like the £1.2m one is under offer too, although might be interesting to see whether it completes and if so, at what price

2 ovens, 1 microwave.

These popped up localish. I'm not sure I know where to start. There are a few "barn conversions" round here but these are a new high/low. Looks to be around a £1M

On photo 9, what is that double slot in the middle of what looks to be an induction hob for?

Extraction. There's no hood above.

Where it says "link detached", that's just false, right? It's two semis and one terrace with all the shared walls in habitable rooms.

What was Tiffany thinking? Those shoes...


ETA Nicky Midgely shows how it should be done. (With shoes, everything else is still wrong)

I'll be honest I can see the need for 3 (if one is a microwave), but a 'must have' for me is the 'hide and slide' (or whatever bks Neff has called it). makes a big difference (and I can see as you get older it gets more useful)
