And if they are to be believed (whoever they may be), wouldn’t it be nice to splash around in your very own pool?
Well, if you’ve got £1,400,000 to spare (who hasn’t, she said sarcastically), then this lovely house in Maulden could the one for you.
What makes this house so rad is not just the six bedrooms and six bathrooms – or even the pool – but the fact there’s a separate wing with its own entrance and living quarters. Maybe ideal for multi generational living, a guest suite – or perhaps a wellness retreat or Airbnb. Dwell on it.
The house is in New Road and sits on a plot in excess of 4,000 sq ft.
