Anyone else received a glossy A5 size postcard through the post from Bovis advertising the above? From what I can glean the 4 beds cost just shy of £310,000 to just shy of £350,000 so the 5 beds will cost more.

I remember reading , years ago it was now, that Soviet Russia claimed it had no homeless people. And why did it claim that? Because all people in Soviet Russia were deemed to have a home even if that home was a cardboard box underneath a ...
