is this a new record? seems a trifle optimistic

[matthew123]

Well it would be for that street as it's double the previous record from 2 years ago. Perhaps it's been recently renovated, or do all houses at that price look as if they've not been lived in such is the flawless decor..

[Sherwick]

?2 million? I offer ?4 million!

Oh dear, unfortunately I cannot get the finance together... oh well, never mind.

[snorky]

*splits sides*

Its good to see that amongst the fallout from the crunchy credit and recession mongering, a lone estate agant still has enough of a sense of humour to place such a lighthearted obvious piss take on his site

Armando Ianucci would be proud of this master stroke

Well done pickwick estates- for singlehandedly cheering up the populace of ED

[matthew123]

The advert boasts it overlooks Peckham Rye Park, not that I've got anything about that particular street but it is a good 25 minute walk to any train station.. but then I guess it's irrelevant, if you do pay that money you'll probably be at home all day in a straight jacket

[Mikecg]

I like the way they advertise it as a Villa?

[jimbo1964]

It's a beautiful house.. very silly price.

[cupid_stunt]

and they call me a cupid stunt!

Looks like a fantastic house.

Nice of them to give us all a free look around it. And at that price we can still look at it on rightmove for another 12 months at least - so no rush to view.

[snorky]

I would make a joke about the folly of openly displaying your fat house guts on the net during a recession - but will probabaly have the rozzers round my virtual gaff with some cyber handcuffs under a little used anti terrorist law

[marianne1]

2 million pounds but no garage???????

[Mick Mac]

You surely won't be able to afford a car too, marianne.

[Jeremy]

marianne1 - Victorian houses don't tend to have garages!

[Mick Mac]

Ah good point Jeremy - I always wondered why I had nowhere to park my car.

[Moos]

Couldn't you park the car in the stables?

It's rather nice - how much if you just buy the cute garden house?

[cate]

Who would even need 8 bedrooms unless you are rampant breeders? Would make a great commune though.

[Brendan]

You could park your horse in one of them.

[Dez]

If I had ?2million I'd live somewhere else

[Jeremy]

...preferably within walking distance of a station.

[Peckhamgatecrasher]

Thou shalt not covet. Thou shalt not covet. Thou shalt not covet. Thou shalt not covet. Thou shalt not covet. Thou shalt not covet. Thou shalt not covet. Thou shalt not covet. Damn - I want it.

[Brendan]

I?m pretty sure that commandment only applies to your neighbour?s ass and not houses in thy neighbouring suburb.

[jaybee82]

I'm pretty sure I've been inside that house to run network cable on my computery rounds. That one, or one very similar.

Very nice it was too!
