Ha ! I’ve been there, I mentioned it on here at the time. He’s tidied it up a lot since then, none of that exterior landscaping / pool was done when I saw it.
Looking again it might even be a different owner now, previous one had lots of actual workshop equipment to do actual work. It looks like a showroom now,

Can anyone identify the cars outside this one?
Ferrari 250 GT and a DB5?

The silver one's a DB6 not DB5.
My best guess on the red one is a 1970s Aston Martin V8

I like money as much as the next man but I think I’d panic at winning £100m+
An extended holiday, immediately, would be required to have ‘a bit of a think’.
Then on my return it would be coke/hookers and Zondas.
On the house, this keeps coming on and off the market. It’s the correct size (not too big) and is local. They’ve even dropped the price £500k. I still think it’s overpriced at £5.5m but WTF do I know. And I’ve won the Euromillions.

Pfft, only a small double garage which you will struggle to get the Zonda in and no real room for a decent garage anywhere else. More imagination required.

I walked past it earlier. You’re right, totally unsuitable garage, back to the drawing board.
Unless I go underground.

They didn't think to stand about 6 foot closer to the house so the dead tree wasn't in the shot?!

the weird thing is, I looked through the link again, and o actually quite like some (NOT all!) of the rooms. Except for the consistently awful 80s curtains

Same... I wouldn't have been brave enough to choose it myself, but I could live with it.

In isolation some of it isn't bad, it is the aggregate visual onslaught that scrambles the brain.
