    It's a council building so I am not sure how much is the service charge, however, it's very airy and bright. Some renovation work is needed but there is potential for some extension. Shall I buy it?

    The upside is that pets are allowed

    So with crap Broadband, noise from the motorway, smell from the sewage, and no Cafe Nero, that first one is looking very over priced.

    ... and it's close to the sewage works http://www2.getmapping.com/webshop/W...293300&y=89100

    The problem with the third one...
    There are frequent reports of dolphins sightseeing in the Babbacombe Bay and fair weather or storm, the ever changing coastline cannot fail to impress.
    ...is that that part of the coast keeps sliding into the sea.

    And there's an inter-city railway down beneath that wall somewhere.

    If you take Heathrow as being the 1st available Tube station - then the distance from postcode EX2 8XR is actually 159.9 miles
    HTH - did i mention I was bored?

    I actually was interested in the first one.

    So much so that I checked the availability of DSL there.

    According to BT Wholesale, your line should be able to support a 0.5Mbps or greater ADSL connection.

    Standard ADSL RAG results:
    You cannot receive 2Mbps ADSL
    You cannot receive 1Mbps ADSL
    You may be able to receive 512Kbps ADSL (Engineer visit likely)
    You may be able to receive 256Kbps ADSL (Engineer visit likely)

    You are approximately 3.87km from the exchange (straight line distance).

    So sadly I will not be taking this any further. I've got addicted to 17M DSL.

    Got to be worth owning for the price of an ex-council house in Hackney?

    Or maybe you prefer 22 acres of land as well?
