The price is bonkers - for the same money and a short drive away, you could've bought this: https://www.rightmove.co.uk/properties/120826208
I like how they've blurred all the pictures out, but left the big bronze statue in full view in hallway photos too.
I’m sure she was bleating on when they bought it a few years back at 700k it had 4 bedroom and she was saying it was a big risk with the mortgage.I like how they've blurred all the pictures out, but left the big bronze statue in full view in hallway photos too.
Luckily the Captain money allowed them to extend a fair bit by the looks of it.

I used to live in the village and know a number of people who still live there, I understand that they are entirely shunned by the natives now.
I live in the village and I'm sure that's true, but equally I wouldn't know them if I bumped into them outside the post office. She's probably the second most unpopular person in the village (after the bloke who parks his car outside his house on Beancroft Road and causes chaos during peak hours).The area where the house is is actually quite nice- yes there's a 70's estate behind it but it faces away from these, the entrance being next to some lovely period cottages and, being the old rectory, it's right next to the church. Opposite is a green and Morteyne Manor, which apparently is a very good restaurant.
Pre Covid the family used to open their garden for the church fete, we only went the once but I remember it being very nice- I'm not sure if it will achieve the asking price but it's a lovely place and in normal circumstances would probably sell reasonably easily.

Up for sale for £2.25m.
Who says folk didn’t make money from Covid.
Guess the £800k from the book sales and the salary from the charity paid off the mortgage and for some upgrades.

These grasping chancers really have no shame: "https://news.sky.com/story/captain-tom-moores-daug...
“We are increasingly concerned that the Charity Commission's process may have evolved into a relentless pursuit, and question whether it is a tactic by the commission to make our lives more difficult, by suspending us in constant fear and mental anguish."

It appears it was his wish, sorry her wish, sorry his wish, no definitely her wish......Quote:
Ms Ingram-Moore said her father's wish had been for his family to get the money, despite him suggesting in one of the books that the purpose of the books was to raise money for charity.
A foreword to his autobiography reads: "Astonishingly at my age, with the offer to write this memoir I have also been given the chance to raise even more money for the charitable foundation now established in my name."
Perhaps she doesn't understand the phrase 'charitable foundation' and is getting confused with 'lining my own pockets'.
