Snooping around – in pictures

In town: Bedford. This is handsomely vintage on a pleasant road a mile from town. And it’s enormous: six bedrooms and three receptions, all for £399,950. The jaded decor, however, won’t appeal to urban sophisticates and will require attention. Taylors Photograph: Taylors Photograph: Action images In the country: Devon. A recent refurb to this two-bedder in East Allington has bequeathed a log burner, underfloor heating and a Rangemaster in the kitchen/diner. It’s a shame the neighbours share a path between the back door and the back garden. Yours for £215,000. Marchand Petit Photograph: Marchand Petit Photograph: Action images Wreck of the week: London. This three-bed maisonette on Quintin Avenue, SW20, is habitable but stale – £30,000 would regroom, in addition to the £349,950 asking price. The kitchen is large enough for family dining, but the two bedrooms are daintily sized. It’s close to Wimbledon Chase station and a 20-minute walk from the common.

Set in the Wentworth Estate , Pine Acre is just half-a-mile from the commutable Virginia Water station – but who would want to go to the office when they could hang out on the incredible roofed terrace. Spread over almost 9,000 square feet, the property boasts everything a family might want: a large kitchen/breakfast room, five en suite bedrooms, a gamesroom and a gym. From a dressing room off the master bedroom you can admire the rolling lawns, or you can allow yourself a closer look from the downstairs garden room. The price tag? A mere £4.975m.
