This is what I want. But it's not in Surrey.

OK from the outside but the interior's foul and the kitchen is truly vile.

WTF is a chaise longue doing in the bathroom?

It says

Both the kitchen and the library/study are bespoke fitted with high specification furniture by 'Christians'.

They should have got atheists instead.

Soaking up the smell if someone goes for a tulip.

Stretch yourself, are you a prawn or a shrimp?

Looks like two council semis with a large and well kept garden.

Yeah I thought that one was horrible and massively overpriced too.

Actually I'd rather have something modern, cutting edge, than a period property.

The brickwork looks like a chavvy council house.

I was expecting to see a shopping trolley slung up on the roof.

You can build a 4- or 5-bedroom house for 60-120k. Land that you may not build on costs a paltry few thousand for say 1/2-acre.

All the rest is artificial scarcity value of building (or built-up) land in particular areas.

It’s not my taste at all but best of luck to you. I get the impression that modern architecture is unpopular in Britain. Sure, there are some brilliant buildings in London and Birmingham (new bull ring) and one or two fantastic architects, but it seems the height of aspiration is still a Georgian or mock tudor house in the country.

Is there anywhere in Britain where they’d let me build something like these? Don’t say Milton Keynes or Slough;

Trust me, you do not want a house with a flat roof in Britain.

Nah, this is a fjord

No, this is a fjord.

640 metres direct drop to sea level

Those both look hideously office-like imo.
