That looks like not much more than a bedsit on the side of a hill.
It's just shed porn.
It's a 3 bedroom, 2 bathroom shed that looks a lot better in the flesh than it does in the estate agents pics. The site is big, it's around 3 acres across 3 terraces, only half of one terrace is shown in the pics.

Anyway, deposit paid, it should be ours in 4 to 6 weeks. 🙂
Love that place! That's bloody awesome

Fast Internet + mains water. That's all mod cons!

Looks excellent - enjoy!

Well it's not cheap, but it's not completely crazy.

Although, I guess in the north it is.

Just waiting to be picked up and taken to airport. Going to UK for first time in well over 3 years.
More than a little trepidation.

I bet you wish houses were that cheap where you live. Then your kids could have a nice place :)

Well, my Daughter has a nice place, but yes I wish all property places were much lower than they are. Kids today have a real tough time getting on the property ladder compared to my day.

At the airport and just realised it's about 8 years since I flew to UK. I was otherwise in the camper.

Go get an overpriced beer to calm your nerves afterwards.

I have to say - when I went to Munich recently I was actually checked much more thoroughly and had to queue longer coming into the UK than I was entering Germany.

Sat in back of a car on the M25. Totally alien and a bit scary.
