Imagine paying 25m for a house and not even having any grass to walk on

[@freddie3206]

@naraithsil, i was thinking the same thing. Imagine what you could buy in the U.S. for this amount and acres of beautifully landscaped grass with 3 or 4 garages. i don't think the Brits are big on landscaping. i think they are happy with terraces. The homes are right on top of each other. i have seen some homes though where they are not on top of each other. Imagine if you had 2 big German Shepherds and when they start to bark because they hear or see something, the neighbors being so close together are not going to like the barking. But if you had 2 0r 3 acres of land surrounding your home, they are not going to be bothered by the barking as much!

[@scabthecat]

That outside yard is definitely not a selling point for a £25m house.

The interior design of that home was simply amazing. Not a bad place to rest your head at the end of the day. The only thing that stung was the price. Where I'm from (the American Midwest) that price gets you a lot of acres and a house with 3x or 4x more square feet.

[@dontarguewithidiots7459]

Yup, it's how it is. I live in the NYC area and for 1mm (still a lot of money for most) you get a shoebox. Move right across the river from Manhattan and you get a LOT more. It''s the same everywhere.

[@MrSosa35]

Outside of the M25 which surrounds London that price will get you plenty of land trust me. Also Knightsbridge is one of the most elite areas of central London therefore the price is to be expected.

[@freddie3206]

Yes! beautiful home with excellent taste, but the rooms were not that big and the yard did not have acres of land to it. Gorgeous home but overpriced for sure!

Love your presentation style, very professional and excellent knowledge.

I guess the £24 millions of the price is for living around the corner from Harrods! I don’t know, all I know that I’ll make a crap millionaire, I’ve gotten too comfortable with being broke all my life! Anyway, being born and bred in East London, if I had the dough to buy a mansion, seriously Greater London will be the last place I buy a property in. Don’t get me wrong, London is a great grey and expensive city to live in, especially if you’re a drunk and like the seedy side of the city-life, but I want more wild-life to see the end of my days. And can somebody tell me why is London 10% larger than when I was born? London seems to be growing larger each year.

[@christinalyons9038]

It's really nice, I think they utilized the space well considering it's under 5,000sqft. Also, in the beginning I said there are 6 bedrooms & I only counted 5. Maybe I missed 1, but there was the staff bedroom, 2 rooms on the second floor, the master bedroom & the room on the top floor. Unless they consider that study area on the 2nd floor a bedroom or 1 of the other rooms that's being used as something else is considered a bedroom. Also u'd think the master would have room for a king sized bed. Don't get me wrong it's really lovely, it just seems a little cramped. Maybe it's just me because I'm claustrophobic & also I'm from U.S. & am used to having more open spaces. It just seems like for 25mil pounds there should be more space

[@isaacgloriosissimus2509]

You are right. A 25 million pound property should have more spaces. The London luxury properties always have small spaces but are super expensive. I think it's because it's in London. It's the same in New York City where the bedrooms are small. The property is overpriced for me. It should cost about £10,000,000.

[@pepethepatriot7524]
