Tonka Posted April 5, 2021 Report Share Posted April 5, 2021 Weired layout though. You have to go through a bedroom to access a bedroom. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
roland elsdon Posted April 5, 2021 Report Share Posted April 5, 2021 Too much work. Had a few acres in Oz all very posh when we started. You become a slave to the property. Better with a lock up and leave, a narrow boat and lots of time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not an unknown arrangement in older country houses. I once rented an ex-farmhouse in France in which a smaller bedroom was situated beyond a main bedroom. It was intended as a child's room.

A lot of room for a lot of pellets - but rather a long way from the grouse moors - noting the Boot Room. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hudds Lad Posted April 22, 2021 Report Share Posted April 22, 2021 there’s a couple on the HNC, neither suitable for EOG moorings though High Lea, Marsden, Huddersfieldhttps://www.rightmove.co.uk/property/104547734 and Old Bank, Slaithwaite, Huddersfieldhttps://www.rightmove.co.uk/property/90849136 personally i don’t think either are worth that sort of cash, but seems folk are chancing their arm at big prices recently. next door to us sold for £95k in 2016, just gone up last week for £265!

I thought it was 1.5M originally on the floodplain. A much better proposition is this one:- https://www.rightmove.co.uk/properties/104900498#/media?id=media5&ref=photoCollage which is on the lock island above Boulter's lock.

At first sight, delightful and very affordable. But then we read that there's no road access, that the fireplaces don't work, and that the mysteriously large back terrace was in conjunction with a café business (how, if no one can get there by road?) So, I think we'll stay where we are for the time being, thanks. That lock looks suspiciously wide, too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, just a reference to the fact that the locks in our normal cruising area are all narrow jobbies. It's probably 15 years since we went through a broad one.

Well they turned over £50k per annum opening 4 days per week in the summer months only. So there must be a lot of passing trade from walkers and boaters.

In the early 1980s, I was acquiring terraced houses in that area for £500 or therabouts; admittedly for slum clearance. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
