In the country: Devon. This two-bedder has panoramic views of the sea at Strete, near Dartmouth, and is near a coastal path to Slapton Sands. It’s small, with just a galley kitchen, but there are beams and an inglenook. Yours for £369,950. Marchand PetitPhotograph: Marchand PetitIn town: London. This selection of one-bed flats in E3 are just a walk from the Olympic Park and the Westfield shopping centre, while the three shared roof terraces look over half of London. First-time buyers need only a 4% deposit. It’s just a shame it’s in an area still in the early stages of regeneration. Prices start from £216,000.

Yours for £275,000, it has views over the Eden Valley and the Pennine Fells, and £80,000 would make it pleasantly habitable. Tthen there are the outbuildings, into which you could extend.
