Twenty Or So Spectacular Homes Currently Sitting On The Market, October 2025
So many of these could do with a zhuzh, but that’s part of the dream. We’ve included one or two turnkey properties; many of the twenty, though, are in need of a new owner with big ideas and deepish pockets.
Our houses range from £750k to £18 million. They’re spread across the UK and come in all shapes and sizes. There’s a French château in Oxfordshire, a glorious mustard-coloured abode in Wales, and a Georgian townhouse in Edinburgh so good I’m somewhat starstruck just looking at it. Some of the rooms below are downright startling. Most of us are out of the running when it comes to buying, but we’re all here for the snooping and, by god, there’s snooping to be had. I do hope you enjoy looking as much as I enjoyed finding.
Once a modest 18th-century farmhouse, it was enlarged in 1817 by John Collingwood for sisters Julianna and Charlotte Strickland, with a stuccoed south front of two storeys, five wide bays and a central Ionic porch. Around 1850 H Rowe and Son extended it for their brother Henry Eustatius, adding end bays, a full-length cast-iron veranda, shutters and dormers. In the same family for over 200 years, it now needs complete modernisation and restoration - perhaps not complete - lets not abandon all that charm.
