  1. There seems to be a trend around here for buying a scruffy brick bungalow, ripping the roof off and adding an extra storey or two in lightweight timber construction.

  2. I get that seeing as bungalows are normally on a large plot of land

  5. Lovely looking place with nice amount of grounds. Unfortunate that it's right on the narrow High Street which has houses on one side and buildings/high wall on the other - designed to amplify Termi's (other brands are available)...could find yourself becoming similar to a Petworth resident!

  6. All my bikes have Termi's.... would that make me popular?

  7. I've just got planning permission on a one acre plot to build a 5 bed 5 bath triple garaged with huge basement space, big kitchen, dining and lounge space, study and utility. Lovely plot backing onto beech woods.
    Ten minutes out of Marlow, Bucks.
    Plenty of room for a bike or two.

  8. You could buy a whole terrace if not a small village for the cost of that plot, though probably not in Marlow!

  9. It's probably circa £700k with the permission, possibly the same again to build, stunning place.
    Perfect place to be, close to Marlow, Henley, Oxford, London, lots of lovely pubs and great roads.
