This converted station has all the usual features – three bedrooms, combined sitting and dining room, kitchen and bathroom – but it has a few extras thrown in, such as the original ticket hatch in the kitchen and the former train tracks outside. The village and its neighbour West Rudham have some great pubs and restaurants. Perfect for rail enthusiasts – although they could be waiting some time for a train to spot. Cost: £300,000.

If £2.45m is a bit pricey for you, don’t panic: part exchange is apparently an option if you are interested in this monster of a house. I mean monster in the nicest way possible: it boasts seven bedrooms, seven bath or shower rooms, six receptions, a cinema, gym, wine room and grand hallway. And the rooms aren’t mean in size either – the kitchen cum dining room measures 42’ by 16’. I bet there’s room to extend into the attic as well.

It's located within easy reach of Sheffield and Manchester and was recently reduced from £575,000 to £525,000.
