I will say this. What the duck.

You would become square-eyed living in that house! It’s a ‘design’ nightmare. The toilet in the shower made me laugh…oh my giddy aunt. I never understand people who have shiny tiles in kitchens and bathrooms. Any spillage and you would be slip sliding your way around those floors!

This house doubled up as Netherfield in the 1995 production of Pride and Prejudice. Although vast, I would love to live here. The peace and tranquility alone would lure me in.

Well it's had at least one viewing: View this full article!

I don't think it's particularly cheap. It's clearly had a lot of money spent on it, but already looks dated. So you're paying a premium for things you'll probably end up ripping out.

A pool is nice...but in Nottingham I'd question how much use you'd get out of it. They also cost a fortune to heat (alternatively, you don't heat it, but I had a friend in SW England who had an unheated pool and that was unusable for about 50 weeks of the year!). The pools also some distance from the house, I think if I was having a pool I'd want it much closer.

I know two people who have had pools put in, both are heated by ground source pumps which are expensive to put in but are incredibly efficient and you only pay for the electricity to run them. Both pools are in use for most of the year. I’m not sure I could be bothered with the maintenance though.
