Snooping around – in pictures

Snooping0905: Chepstow, Monmouthshire
Around town: Hardwick Avenue, Chepstow, Monmouthshire
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.

In the country: Stowe, Knighton, Shropshire
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.

Snooping0905: Midhurst, West Sussex
Wreck of the week: Midhurst, West Sussex
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.

Surreal estate: Newcastle upon Tyne
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!
