The interior feels more like an office or show-room rather than a practical residence. Picture 39 looks like something off Fail Blog..
Lack of furniture makes it very hard to understand how the layout work. At least with a standard, rectangular 3 bed house, its all a bit obvious.
Externally? It is is keeping with the stone facade. I think stainless would look awful. Although, with the circular rotunda, and circular section of roof, and generally circular curves everywhere. Wonder why the chimney is circular too.🤣

Isn't?

I've heard of Jack and Jill bathrooms, but entire houses?
They've at least put the living area upstairs to maximise the sea views - but a 5 bedroom house, with one all-in, open plan living/dining area? Dunno who that would appeal to tbh. (The blurb text says 4-bed, but the room upstairs is labelled a bedroom in the floor plans, and looks far too small to be anything other than a study or office or spare bedroom)
And that tiling in the living/dining/kitchen area is horrendous.
And lastly, nearly a million to have an open plot front and back between yourself and your neighbours? No thanks!

Jammed into someone's backyard'
on the floor? i think that is chipboard
Oh maybe it is! I thought it was just particularly horrible marbled tiles.
OK well that's one tiny mitigating factor, at least you're not tied into someone else's flooring choice.
Still a no from me though!
Or, elderly parents in one, family in the other?
I know someone who was looking for a set up like that, and bought two semi-ds next door to each other.
But in fairness, these are probably too big. Plus, the plots around it would bother me.
The floor is chipboard. As is there is no flooring. Bit of a ask for a largely unfinished house.
The back garden s divided by a fence. The front will be two when the shrubs grow. Not sure where you seen the floor plan, think it 4 bed.
Was a good idea, badly executed. weird left over space to the right. You'd think two semi-d would feel less crammed in.
sorry, yeah I meant “isn’t”
Not that I could afford one of them but I wouldn't buy one even if I had the money. There was way nicer houses in this thread for in and around that price. But any how if I was picking one it would be the house on the right while looking at them with the sea on your back as you could claim that area on the right to be yours.
The clashing curves, planes and angles. I'm having flashbacks to Technical Drawing in the Leaving.
new builds are often sold this way, bathrooms are tiled but rest of flooring is left to the new owner. The rest of the interior looks.largely finished to me.
it'll just be a common area though, this is an estate it just happens to only have 2 houses.
With apologies to Kate Wagner: "His and hers level: just counting down the days until the divorce application…"
We're a couple of centuries past the point of being able to claim areas of land to be ours. The sale of the houses will be very clear on who owes the land to the right. Either house on the right or common property or similar (like the driveway).
I think the price for and unfinished house is worful.
Show an axillary view of the roof surface showing the true area and shape of the tiles and intersection with the chimney.😂
Sometimes, but you'd at least get an option to install something. The thickness of the floor impacts the height of the kitchen units. So you are limited to the thickness they've allowed for (you can see where the island it packed out.). In some phots there is a mini digger out the back, so presumable some are in progres.
Some of the unfinished things I noticed. Hob was missing, build-in units unfinished (in kitchen is built in, really need to install with the units). No blinds or curtains rails. Walk in robe has no doors (option, but cheap), no mirror in the bathroom. Bathroom are only partially tiles - does the buyer have to try find a matching tile?
Other things that re not unfinished, but done as cheaply and lazily as possible. Steps up to the balcony is awful. The steps are painted (is it the 80s?), The white socket on the black island, Radiators lol.
On the surface, its just on the cheap. which suggests it's on the cheap throughout. No where near a million euro property.
Aren't you getting two houses for your million?
not a chance. That’s per property. I’ll admit it’s a badly worded advert but definitely that’s the price per property.
Yes, I hadn't read it very carefully, but its not very clear.
of course not 😂
window treatment not normally included on new builds either and most walk in wardrobes I've seen tend to be open generally, but yes ideally they would have finished the site and maybe kitted one of the houses out as a show house and charged 50k more or whatever.
Have to say though pvc windows and no UFH would point to cost cutting all round.
Eh, depends on how lazy the local guards are and how quick they'd be to shout "Civil matter!" and scurry away after your neighbour plays the "It's my land, and if I see you on it I'll give you a thrashing and burn your gaff down" card.
Edit. Didn't read it properly!
where do you start with this one , one room at a time ? How much would a lift be to install ?

You say that but I was close to buying a house once that had a fairly large garden. When we went to go sale agreed the estate agent admitted the garden wasn't part of the property and the previous owner had just put a fence up around some grassland that had been left by the developer in the middle of the estate. I spoke with someone fairly senior in the planning section of the council and their view was as long as the garden was being maintained they wouldn't have the slightest care about it. The garden was the main reason my wife wanted the house and she was too worried about the whole affair so we withdrew our offer.
14 years on and the garden is still there! There's even scope to claim more if they shifted the fence a few metres.
Supposedly my mothers uncle used to claim a foot of the land behind and to the side of his site a year many, many years ago. He got away with it too. The original owner he bought the site of is long gone.
Boundaries are a tricky thing, have seen houses built further up a hill (for a better view) vs the original pp, fences setup a metre or two beyond the actual boundary, it's not unusual.
Rented a place in Scotland, terraced house, fence between the gardens was straight then at an angle, was like that on the earliest os plans from late 1800's, neighbours built an extension into the garden flush with the fence cutting out a triangle of our garden.
They clearly just chanced it, landlord didn't care or didn't want the hassle just let them get on with it. So now technically part of their extension is in his garden!
My brother once went sale agreed on a house but pulled out when the surveyor discovered that when the seller had built an extension on the back, they'd agreed with the neighbour to move the neighbours heating oil tank to allow access to build - and reinstated the tank when finished. But they built the extension nearly a foot into the neighbours garden. Which the neighbour only discovered when the surveyor asked could they quickly inspect the side of the extension.
So I think it was as much a case of my brother pulling out as it was the house being removed from the market.
