Where do I begin? This place knocks spots off last week’s mega pad.
OK, it’s not in town but this country estate – in Carlton no less – has got space, space and then some.
Not only is there the main house with five bedrooms, but there’s a separate self-contained cottage, a barn and a four car garage/carport with an apartment above – bringing the grand total to 11 (yeah, you heard me) bedrooms.
The estate has a guide price or £2,850,000 and it’s on the market with Michael Graham, Bedford – you can view the full listing here on Rightmove
But what we’ve all really come here for is the swimming pool. Right? Well, gird your loins, people, as this part of the house not only has the heated pool, but boasts an anti-slip floor, plunge pool and fully equipped changing room with shower area. Nice.
