This three-bedroom town house is a lovely combination of old and ultra modern. The open-plan ground floor is about 30ft in length, with lounge and dining area at the front leading through to the very sleek kitchen at the rear. A door leads out from this to a small, walled garden at the back. The first floor has two double bedrooms and a family bathroom, and a cast iron spiral staircase leads up to a third bedroom with en suite shower room. Cost: £279,995.

The Grade II-listed old school house, built in 1761, is now a beautiful three-bedroom home with stunning vaulted ceilings, just the right amount of beams, and cosy yet spacious living rooms. The only downside for keen gardeners might be the outdoor space, which is large but totally paved. As the agents say, it provides a “sheltered and private area with a minimal maintenance requirement”. On the market for £425,000.

Deep in the heart of commuterland, this three-bedroom semi-detached property is one of 18 in a development by Taylor Wimpey. The living room measures a sizable 5.17m by 3.64m and one of the bedrooms has an en suite shower room. But its main selling point will be the asking price of £364,995, given that it’s just 53 minutes from Victoria station.

This four-bedroom cottage needs some modernisation, but for £40,000 to £50,000 on top of the £260,000 asking price you will have a private and traditional family home with stunning views overlooking the Firth of Clyde to Arran and the Mull of Kintyre. The cottage is believed to date back to the 1700s and was built as the local blacksmith’s home – the adjoining stone outbuilding was the original smithy workshop. It comprises a sun room, living room, dining room, breakfast room cum kitchen, bedroom, box room and bathroom on the ground floor, and three further bedrooms on the first floor.
