      I like how there trying to make out it's a millionaires pad on Gurnsey, it's Swindon! Last time I was there I got dizzy driving around town.

      I'll give em 150K for it.

        Am I alone in thinking the real 'story' here is the fact that there are houses worth that amount in Swindon?

          Agreed.

          All the places I am looking at have been on the market for ages. Lots of "open to offers" appearing in the windows of the estate agents as well.

          Now is the time to make a killling.

            So you think a house 100m from the M4 in Swindon shouldn't cost 3/4 of a million pounds then?

            It's almost like UK property has become absurdly overpriced......

                I was wondering why they didn't bother concealing the power lines in the photo. I was also wondering what the planners were doing when it was built but the motorway bit explains a lot.

                  About 5 years too early if you follow the last slump. It hasn't even started yet !
