Old and new homes – in pictures

New build: Gloucestershire. It’s hard to believe, looking at the stone walls and established garden, that this is a new property, but it’s actually part of a development of eight homes in the village of Down Ampney, near Cirencester. This £450,000 three-bed semi is incredibly light and airy with oak flooring on the ground floor. The only apparent disadvantage is a shortage of preparation space in the kitchen.

The outside of this property in Snodland is deceptively small: inside are four bedrooms (one en suite), a kitchen/family room and a separate sitting room. There is no garage, but apparently the house comes with three designated parking spaces. Yours for £395,000.

This three-bed cottage in Lymington in the New Forest has been refurbished to within an inch of its life, leaving little feeling inside of its Victorian origins. However, for anyone wanting a calmly decorated home that is ready to move into, it could be just the thing. Outside, the garden is very bland, but could make a nice project for an owner with green fingers. Cost: £395,000.

There’s oodles of space in this £349,950 four-bed stone house in Fourstones, near Hexham, which has a separate lounge and dining room, a kitchen/breakfast room and a utility room. But if you do find yourself tripping over family members you could always take yourself off to the ‘hobby’ room over the double garage.

Bijou is the word that springs to mind with this three-bedder in Avening, near Tetbury. The sitting room is just under 14’ by 11’ and the kitchen is just under 11’ by 7’, but it does have a separate small dining room. This compact cottage might not have acres of space inside, but the back garden makes up for it with a huge lawn and vegetable patch and views over the village. On the market for £289,950.
