This place certainly used to have its own...... Tank track, useable for all sorts of other 4x4 rallying no doubt.

Front looks coherent, but the back somehow looks like someone took 2 big houses chopped them into 4 halves & then randomly swapped the bits around V odd.

Imagine you had an acre of land in a lovely part of England and you could build anything. Imagine deciding on this:

You'll soon be very familiar with the Marlow Donkey timetable living there.

No-one has decided on anything, those are architect's renders and the £3m asking price is just for the land as it stands.

A 10,000sqft new build house to a decent spec will be another £3.5million minimum on top of that, probably more.

Well the council has. The estate agent can’t be bothered to provide proper info and just refers to the architects’ renders. It’s got full pp (not outline) and the detailed plans are online.

Only the proximity of the road could be held against that. Beautiful, and the rooms are on a very human scale.

Lovely.

Thoughts on the outline of a building that’s marked out in the garden on satellite view?

So low stone wall or foundation outline?

I think that’s quite cool.

This one is brill - agreed that even looks like somewhere people might actually live too, with 'proper' rooms, the kitchen etc. Big but not ridiculous.


And of course as this is PH, this:

Wessex Archaeology and Time Team have had a dig, so famous Phil Harding has had his trowel in that ground.

That's beautifully quaint but would be a total nightmare to live in.

Just imagine how cold it would get in the winter, plus as already mentioned the fire risk!
