A coastal castle dating back almost 500 years
With 32 bedrooms under its roofs, this property is certainly grandiose in nature and definitely magnificent to behold. It actually dates back to the 15th Century after which it was extended in the 19th Century before a more recent renovation completed its development.
Enjoying 30 acres of its own land, as well as fishing rights to the waterfront nearby, Ackergill Tower is a truly beautiful find.
Price: £3,900,000

A countryside home with its very own party barn
While this four-bedroom family home in Cockfield, Suffolk is perfectly lovely in its own right, we have to admit it’s what’s hiding in the garden that’s the real draw.
Behind the property’s walls lies a fun-filled party barn detached from the main house that includes a fully functioning bar, running water, electricity and is currently set up with everything from a pool table to arcade machines.
Price: 675,000

An old windmill that has lots of potential
Situated near Doncaster in South Yorkshire sits a five-bedroom farmhouse that has been completely renovated to accommodate modern living.
While the main property is certainly stunning, it’s the development opportunity for the old windmill that is really interesting – especially for someone with a little bit of vision.

A Tardis-style houseboat (it’s bigger on the inside!)
All Doctor Who jokes aside, this two-bedroom houseboat really does seem like it has more space inside than it has any right to – thanks to a gorgeous open plan reception room and kitchen and a decked terrace out top.
Situated just moments from Canary Wharf on its gated moorings in Poplar Dock Marina, this houseboat is definitely one quirky property.
Price: £365,000

A converted water tower transformed into a lovely family home
Over in Kenilworth, in Warwickshire, you will find a fantastic six-bedroom property that looks unlike anything else you are likely to have seen.
Converted two years ago from a redundant water tower, the home now has both contemporary fixtures and fittings along with a wealth of original features, our favourite among them being the roof terrace that gives you breath-taking views of the surrounding countryside.
Price: £1,500,000
