Old and new homes – in pictures

Historic home: West Yorkshire. The current owners have really made the most of the available space in this two-bed semi in Fenay Bridge near Huddersfield. It is a converted former chapel and retains many ecclesiastical features, including the rather unusual shaped beams. The rooms are a decent size, with an open-plan living and dining area, and a very smart black and white bathroom. On the market for £160,000.

This £425,000 flint and brick mid-terraced cottage in Little Kingshill, Great Missenden, will escape the effects of the HS2 line which is blighting other parts of the village. The estate agent says the house is three-quarters of a mile from the line, with other buildings blocking the view and sound in-between, and the track goes into a cutting at the nearest point. Which is good, because this three-bedder is beautifully presented and offers plenty of light, bright space.

Either way, this three-bed stone barn conversion is part of the Barbot Hall Farm on Car Hill in Rotherham, and unlike many conversions is quite cosy with rooms that families of a normal size could live in, rather than the Waltons. The master bedroom, however, is enormous and boasts an en suite wet room. Yours for £300,000.

This is an incredibly contemporary bungalow in the very traditional seaside town of Bacton. It boasts underfloor heating which, as anyone who has experienced the winds coming off the north sea will know, is just as well. The three-bed bungalow is immaculate, making the most of open planning to maximise space in the communal areas. And Bacton is one of those rare things – a Norfolk seaside town that isn’t overrun with Londoners at weekends. Yours for £324,950.

This is the perfect pied-a-terre for a Berliner who enjoys the vibrancy of city living. It is a centrally located studio flat in Berlin West surrounded by shops, cafes, art galleries, boutiques and supermarkets, and close to tourist attractions, parks and the University of the Arts. It is bright and airy thanks to the high ceilings and large windows, and has a fitted kitchen and a bathroom. And, this being Germany and not overpriced Britain, it’s a snip at €79,000.
