DaveR's Interesting Properties Thread

That's the one Pendragon had a little nose around on one of her walks a couple of months ago. Potentially very nice but overpriced, I think*. Should be around £250,000 to reflect the fact its semi derelict.

* Dave Rule No.1 - All property is overpriced...unless I'm selling it.

I've heard that Carol, (the Landlady and owner of the Queen Victoria pub in Church Walks) was the successful buyer of The Elms hotel.

If thats the case, then it makes sense because she was the owner of the Hen-Dy hotel on North Parade for many years.
She runs a very good business at The Vic these days.

On another level, it doesn't make sense, as she retired from he hotel trade a few year ago, and was tempted out of retirement to re-invigorate The Vic.

Ideal by a lake with mountains in the background.

Great interior...but looks like a Tourist Information Centre from the outside...

It's an underground house.... it looks fantastic.... but where will I put the plethora of recycling bins?

There's a house in Clapham, south London which has a Ferrari owner.  He drives on to the tarmac, presses a button and the car disappears down into the depths on a hidden lift.  When he wants to go out presses a button, up it comes, the turn table moves and the car is now pointing outwards to the road!  Needless to say he's a City boy.  I gaped in amazement the first time I saw him do it.  Unless you see it, you wouldn't know it's there, just a suburban garden.

Yes that's right Carol the owner of the Queen Vic is a Tennant and therefore rents the queen Vic of some brewery. she has reputedly bought the elms as a bankrupt business for just 250k a bargain worth coming out of retirement for . and the perfect opportunity to possibly double your money less a few expenses 250 =500 less 80 leaves a profit of 420 less 250 = 170 nice to retire on.

I was born there.

Wow, I wonder if there is a plaque there commemorating that fact?   

8.3 acres eh?  I assume it will be demolished and the land used for housing then?

You are not alone. Virtually everyone aged between say 12 and 60 who lives around here and was born locally were born there
