Just returned from a trip to the U.K. and thought I would share the costs of some of their listings to make you feel better.
I spent some time in the lovely hamlet of Oxford and then several days in London.
As you can imagine my body clock was all out of whack so I found myself watching TV at the wierdest hours. And they have a show where they follow a property from "auction" to "redo" then to "sale". Of the 4 or so I saw the majority were in the 269 pounds range for a 2 bedroom, 1 bathroom, kitchen and what we call a family room. No Garage!! Street parking.
So with an exchange rate in the 1.93/ pound area I will round up and say (x2). 2 x 269 pounds = 538,000 US$
There were cheaper examples but I believe the shows target audience is the first time home buyer and small time developers.
I have also included a photo here of the Rothschild Collection place known as "Waddesdon" for your enjoyment.
