Anyone know this lovely sounding place

[Snowy]

Wow, sounds gorgeous! I missed that. Sounds an ideal home for someone wanting to set up a small poultry business I'd love it but some of the children would need to have a tent in the garden - not enough bedrooms

Ooooh, I'm currently living just outside Orpington. I wonder where that place is, sounds like it could be worth a mosey round.

 

Actually I think I might just know where it is, not sure but it rings several bells......do they say who the agent is? It might just be where we bought Phil & Brie from 3 years or so ago.

I think it's a lady on practical poultry who needs to sell as they have (or did have) a new place to go to and the buyer they had messed them around and pulled out on the day of exchange.

I hate it when that happens Selling/buying is stressful enough without being messed around

[Charlottechicken]

Found it!

Thanks for posting that Kate, no estate agent was mentioned but when I read what you had put it made sense to google the phone number

I'm not surprised its under offer at that price.

The kitchen is gorgeous

[Cooks]

it is nice, but just 'nice' nothing spectaular, I prefer detached houses or large semi's with a bit of land around as I feel a tad claustraphobic otherwise.

 

I am not in my dream house, but it is a lovely house, it was about buying a house in the right catchment area within this village and houses rarely come up for sale.

 

When the children are older I will move to a dream place... it's my plan

[Cate in NZ]

It is the place I thought it was . Either it's come back on the market recently or they've been trying to sell for ages. It's quite a nice location, golf course on the opposite side of the road, fields to the back and on a fairly narrow contry lane. But it's tiny inside and there's no back entrance (being a terrace of course). When we went to buy Phil & Brie they had tiny chicks under a lamp in the kitchen .

It's the "Home farm fowls" place, I went there in March to get a few essentials. They were all set to move in April so it obviously fell through, I hope the move goes through for them this time even though I'm disappointed to lose them as it's good having such nice, helpful poultry product suppliers nearby.
