Friend bought a place a couple of years back with a big garden that had been well maintained. The last few years before he bought it the owner had let it get overgrown so he wanted it to be re-done once he moved In.
The previous of owner of my new digs said she liked the wild look. Cleared 2 skips out of the garden. Spent about similar in clearance and the canopy of the massive tree they left.
1.5 mil for that!
Plus stamp
The transactions costs on high value houses are off the charts
Even so, it’s a steal. My house is about to go on the market, we expect to get about $480k for it.
So let's say this house, how much council tax, bills etc everyone reckon that would come to a month?
He was looking at north of £100k to get it done properly, and that didn't include getting the lawn tennis court upto standard
.
I think they've decided to leave it for a while!
I was thinking of how much that would be worth in the London commuter zone. £3-4m would be my guess.
Thought you were?
Including the 28 acres?!?!
Fair point, I forgot about the grounds
IIRC there's quite a back story to Windlestone Hall including the Council selling it to developer who then marketed an investment scheme to turn it into a nursing home and a lot of people lost money
There imay be a current planning application to split the Hall into apartments and develop outbuildings on the estate. I also seem to recall that there were some self build plots proposed. Not sure if this passed planning.
I think the 28 acre grounds may relate to the Hall and whilst you may have access to them you may not own them.
It has potential to be a good development but time will tell.
