Halfway down the hill is a house that comes with wisteria pre-installed. It's an interesting shape and has some interesting deign work going on and has a lovely front(ish) garden; I've been admiring it regularly every time I go by for years.

... and it's currently for sale.

From the start of the brochure:

Barnfields are proud to offer for sale this formidable semi-detached property built in 1927 by local builder Mr Hills. Hills Folly boasts a wealth of period features along with a modern twist offering five bedrooms, two reception rooms, a magnificent kitchen/breakfast room and conservatory.

It's hilariously out of budget and not suitable in any number of ways and we're not looking to move house...

... but we might just book a viewing anyway. I mean! Look at it.

Offers in excess of *gibber*!

My sister was just trying to interest me in a 4 bed for literally under a fifth of the asking price of that one.

I was thinking that only in London could a semi be up for sale at nearly £1mn. Mind you, I think semis on our street are well over £600K now...

Ha, I'd not twigged it was a semi, but was mildly surprised how *cheap* such a substantial and period house was, for London (given I'm used to house prices in an affluent Cambridge village)
