All of them, I think.

Nice… i’d buy it

if you can push your budget to £1.25 million you can buy David Baileys old house.

http://www.rightmove.co.uk/property-for-sale/property-34152907.html

Included in the sale is the Lordship of Sampford Spiney and 202 acres of common land.

You’d probably get a country estate, complete with a title, and staff of serfs in bonded slavery

this is quite nice

When living in town, there was a new tower being built over the moat that had studio flats going for just under a million.

South of the River, FFS!

Bargin!!

@zippykona, it looks like everyone else thinks that listing is a joke too – been listed since November; maybe people are waiting for them to drop it to a sensible price

9 bedrooms, 9 bathrooms and a bit of land.

if we can stretch just a bit to £2m, I really fancy this place as a fixer upper:

You could get this one and still have change to buy a supercar.

The dog is extra.

Can’t find a million pound house within a few miles radius :S

Following on from the other depressing house threads , I’m pretty shocked how little you get.

Looks a bit manky from the outside, but it’s a 6 bed detatched house which looks to be nicely finished, in prime commuterville, doesn’t seem too bad.

This is near me, not bad at all.

This is nice 🙂

for a million you only get four bedrooms….

Northwood, North West London!

For £100K more you can get a three bedroom flat!

Strangely enough I was watching the Good Life (filmed in the mid to late 70’s) just before I came on here and Tom had just been to see the bank manager with a proposal that the bank would give him £2000 per annum once he retired and the bank could keep the house once the Goods died.

Bank manager pointed out that the bank would be putting out £80,000 against their detached house, in Surbiton like the one above, with a value of perhaps £27,000 that may increase over the 20-30 years to £40,000.

I think property values may have risen a little more than expected since then.

Also, in the series Jerry Ledbetter has a house of similar value (£27,000) but a salary package of ‘£18,000, an expense account and a car’ stated in one episode. Now I know it’s not real but I assume the figures stated were somewhere near reality at the time, again showing the growing disparity between house prices and pay.

You can have my house for £1million, I’ll even throw in my van

You could go on holiday with the change – for years.
