There's a couple in Lakes by Yoo, in the private site with all the other celebrities like Kate Moss and Elle Macpherson,

£4.5m doesn't seem to get you much

One would have to go to £5m for the lakesde view and rooftop pool

Only (or one of depending on your perspective) problem is that these are 2nd homes only, you can't live there all year. The 5 mill one says it in the listing but not the others as far as I can see but I doubt they differ.
I’m about to start working on a new one of these fairly soon for a Client.

Funnily enough there are a fair few construction methods on these. Timber frame throughout would be cheapest but might feel a bit flimsy/noisy.

My Client is going full steel frame with concrete floors and walls.

I'm guessing with timber frame, you won't be having your swimming pool on the roof...

Wonderful 70's time capsule, with a hint of 80's. Looks like an old Apple Mac in pic 27.

The inside is. But I hate the outside. Would have to do something to it so that the whole thing worked for me.

Three or four times removed. Won't someone take pity?

The interior almost puts this one in the other thread but I think it just about qualifies to be here.

I can normally look past decor and the current owners 'taste' but that is indeed a shocker.

The outside reminds me of a run down 1970's primary school. Hideous.

I've clicked on the link, looked at the first picture, and I can just tell what the inside is going to be like already.

ETA: Sort of what I was thinking, I was expecting monochrome with a lot of grey. The blue is an interesting addition...
