A large mid-terrace house with four bedrooms and a voluminous back garden. On the market at £219,950, it's a walk from the town centre and has gated off-road parking if you'd prefer to let the car take the strain. Among it's plus points are views extending to the Severn estuary. However a transparent shower cubicle stuck to one of the bedroom walls is probably useful but rather disconcerting.

It looks as if it grew out of the hills, all wood and stone inside and out. Two heated chalets in the garden give extra sleeping quarters - which is just as well as the cottage has only one bedroom. The bathroom is downstairs and is actually a shower room. Sale price: £230,000.

A one-bedroom bungalow on the market for £175,000, this needs cosmetic and structural work, but it sits on a generous plot with lapsed planning permission for a larger house. Covenants restrict the replacement or substantial extension of the existing building and you share a drive with neighbours.

This landmark Grade II listed property has been used in a variety of ways, including as a private home, since it was decommissioned as a working windmill in 1892. Up for sale at a guide price of £650,000, the three-storey building has been extensively refurbished and currently houses a dental practice, a large open-plan studio, a boardroom and roof terrace, but could be reconverted to a home, subject to planning consents. Rare!
