Are they for real looking for 339 for 'a blank canvas' in need of 'complete modernisation'

I think i have just traveled back in time to 2005! Now I'm off to get my 110% mortgage from Anglo to buy that house, looks like a good investment :P

I have no idea about that property, but there is a lot of fishing and messing going on by vendors.

Seems a teeny bit ambitious alright, someone chancing their arm?

Crazy crazy stuff.. Myself and dh passed by the son cleaning the house out about 2mths ago and my husband jut asked if it was been sold as we had been living in the area for 4 yrs, renting. Ideally we would love to buy around here so we kept an eye out for the sale sign to go up and we'd guessed bout 220 for it as it needs alot of work (this was the sons quote). But the son did make the remark that the will was being picked at by himself and 2 siblings! So I'm guessing its them who have out the crazy price, not the EA! There's a house up the rd semi d big back garden show house cond selling for 259!
Feel like I'm back in 2005 alright!!

Somewhere just over 200k is probably reasonable........

Couldn't agree more conductor and that's what we were hoping for but we couldn't even put in a bid if we wanted too with that nonsensical price! Famiky being hungry me thinks!!

Look at the size of the side garden, I'm sure you would get PP for another house there, which would make the price stack up IMO...

its an awkward shape though:

Not a hope you'd fit a normal house in to that garden, although I'm fairly sure the EA will drop that as a suggestion...

If the garage was taken out there would be plenty of space for another odd shape house:pac:

take a look at this around the corner from my family home, I cant get the image dead on, but it beggars belief, it widens at the back obviously, you just get rid of that side garage, put in an alley between the two and have a new detached house ideally.

that image because I cant get it dead on, doesnt do any justice to how bloody ridiculously narrow the house is at the front!

also came across this yesterday...

I think legally though, each house has to have 25m2 rear garden space, which could be tight if two houses on the site...

I have seen DCC giving PP for house that are built at a 45 degree angle and look tiny on the inside.

Not recently.........
Not a snowballs chance in hell that PP would run on a property like this.
The large garden is a selling point- and may be worth a slight premium- but thats it, nothing more, nothing less.

here we go! take a look at the below, I was sure I had seen it on the market recently, but they they have the rear of the house as the main picture, so I didnt recognise it. Take a look at this from the front!!!

It's not actually for sale and the vendor is trying to get the bank off their back?
