Trading up, trading down - in pictures

Trading up: North Yorkshire. Should you have access to £545,000 to fund your expansion, you can rehouse yourself and family in this sizeable chunk of Hunton, a handsome village on the edge of the Yorkshire Dales. Extensive cellars, outbuildings and loft storage will enable you to divert clutter from the five double bedrooms and two receptions. Its 18th-century heritage is visible in the panelling, fireplaces, deep-silled windows and gracious proportions of the rooms, while one lifestyle essential overlooked by the Georgians – a garage – has been added. Its crowning glory is the large, walled garden at the back.

Trading up: Shropshire. You don’t, alas, get all of what you see, but nevertheless your half of this Edwardian mansion buys you five bedrooms and a self-contained stuio annexe provided you can manage the steep climb from the parking area. It’s gloriously sited at the start of Carding Mill Valley with voluptuous views all round, yet is only yards from the shops of Church Stretton. Edwardian opulance survives in the stained glass, floor tiles, rich woodwork and a balcony off one of the bedrooms. In the garden, 100 varieties of rose have been planted. On the market for £389,000.

Trading down: Northumberland. This is a two-bed town house within walking distance of the centre of Berwick-on-Tweed. If you have change from the £120,000 asking price, you could reconfigure the first floor to improve the size of the bedrooms, but the ground floor is already unexpectedly roomy with a 17.5ft reception room and a 15ft kitchen. Double-yellow lines prevent you leaving the car outside your door, but there is permit parking nearby.

Trading down: Devon. A Victorian hospital has been resurrected as a village within the village of Exminster, just across the M5 from Exeter. This £164,500 portion, glorified by stately arched windows, is compact but elegant with two bedrooms and an all-purpose reception. Residents share 11 acres of landscaped gardens, a jogging track and a fitness room – although a half-yearly charge of £900 helps pay for this. For private alfresco pursuits there is a decent-sized garden at the back and long, country rambles beckon beyond the village confines.

Bargain of the week: Glasgow. The homebuyer’s report valued this two-bedroom, end-of-terrace in Castlemilk at £70,000, but for a quick sale the owners will accept around £55,000. Trend-conscious tastes may wish to update the decor; otherwise this is a family-friendly home with a decent garden in an area of the city which, while impoverished, has undergone a regeneration programme.
