Tat London Journal

I think we all know next to houses for £500k and this is the other hot ticket in town! Here we winkle out the houses that are ready for a new life. They've seen some things and may well be feeling a little weary and in need of an injection of life.

erraced houses, small chapels, sturdy gatehouses and gleaming former factories. We’ve rounded them up, brushed them down and held them to the light. Scattered across the country, each has its own quirks and character, waiting for the next set of tenants — could that be you?

Here is the more expensive cousin to the Under £500 piece. Some of these will define a room. They have such heft and beauty that you need do little or no decorating around them. Hence the price. That said, I have still kept an eye on cost and there are one or two I think are real bargains. The main thing here is interest and beauty. Two of Tat’s guiding lights.
