Love the estate agent's description - rural location - hmm right on the junction of two busy roads that are regularly gridlocked - as long as you wear ear defenders and only look out of the back windows I guess you could say it was rural!

If I was lucky enough to have £400k to spend on a house I am sure I could find a nicer one than that! (if anyone would like to give me £400k so I can prove it feel free!)

              Theres still a really "Fishy smell
              Blowing up Dan bank
              Its not from the water treatment works
              or that septic tank
              Its from the amount of money spent
              on that infamous path
              It starts then goes to nothing
              It really makes me laugh
              And now weve got two crossings
              Thats really rather grand
              Not many people walk down there
              Its a kind of No Mans Land!
                                                         Anon 2009 ;D

Indeed, here it is :

http://www.rightmove.co.uk/property-for-sale/property-23851675.html

Funny how there isn't a photo of the quiet cul-de-sac the property nestles in. Location, location, location.

Use RightMove and see what you can buy in the region of £420K - £450K. 

It's amazing how the careful selection of pictures can give such a misleading impression of a house. Interesting to note there are no pictures of the traffic chaos regularly going on right outside the front door!!

I only beat you by 41 seconds, Rudolph! 

The view by many contributors to this thread is that the developer will have spent quite a lot.  If it doesn't fetch the asking price he may not have made a huge profit.    :'(

Whoops - Dave is clearly a quicker typer-ist (sic) than me. Sorry for the duplicate post :-(

While Bridgfords may generally estimate on the high side (e.g. compared to other Marple estate agents), that's not a bad return given it was sold for £138,000 in November 2005... (Source: From the Land Registry Records)

OK, so we don't know how much "developer" money has been invested....

Mmm - nice kitchen!

According to this useful website.....http://www.houseprices.co.uk/marple-road-stockport-sk2/31/

.....it sold four years ago for 138K.  (Of course, it might have changed hands again since then).
