I honestly don’t know where to start. Room dividers, curved fireplaces, light fittings, the bar (and accessories), the cupboards, the kitchen, the bathrooms, the old TV. I could go on and on. Some of it you might want to keep, other bits less so. But there are so many original features here, a period renovation really is crying out to be done.

This 1956 build has four bedrooms set in their own wing, as well as a family room and living room with floor to ceiling windows, plus a fairly large kitchen, a large formal dining room and much more over the 3,600 sq. ft. of living space. Looks to be a good amount of outside space too, with a plot covering 1.6q acres.

Fancy it? The price is $374,900, which we make at around £229,000.
