Snooping around – in pictures

Wreck of the week: Northumberland. This is a single-storey lodge at the entrance to Belford Hall. Yours for £100,000, it is gravely dated and needs a full refurb. It’s a stately stone building in a wooded garden close to the coast and the national park, but is titchy and has only the one bedroom. Ideally you would give it an extension.

In the country: Dorset. There’s a river at the end of the garden of this two-bed house in the village of Charlton Marshall, near Blandford Forum. The playroom could make a third bedroom, and there’s an office annexe and a 20ft reception. It’s a shame that the second bedroom is less than 7ft wide, and that waterside plot is across the road. On the market for £240,000.

In town: London. This is a one-bed house in Queenstown Road, SW8, with a garden, cunningly converted from a shop and stylishly fitted out. Yours for £375,000, it’s a shame you will have to make your bed: the mezzanine is on view from the open-plan living area, which tapers to a rather narrow end.
