Heres a link to the new waterside development, in case any of you thrusting young executives fancy relocating

The Waterside Accrington development

I wonder how much they cost to buy

Oops, just noticed price list on link lol!

SPUGGIE J · 31-08-2007, 20:20

Too expensive for my pocket. That and I thought when I was down that it was going to be more office space.

SPUGGIE J · 31-08-2007, 20:40

£90k to £143k dependent on floor, spec and bathroom. Indoor carpark £7.5k outdoor £5k. Now who in Accy can afford this then?

No prices listed for 6th floor, offers invited

You have to down load the price list.

Out and About tells you all about the Ribble Valley and the Trough of Bowland, not Accy! Strange that.

Be nice to see more pics of the show flats.

Sounds quite nice, but not an area I'd like to live in.

I would think that quite of few of these apartments have already been sold. I just can't see a developer building them unless they knew there was a market, there was a programme on television recently where the developer bought a block of ex-council flats and made them into luxury apartments and a lot of them were sold off plan. I would imagine this is what happened here.

The irony is that the view even from the penthouse flats are not exactly awe inspiring are they. Who in their right mind would buy off plan without visiting it are either wrong in the head or more money than sense.

They don't exactly offer the view that the ones in London had(they were right next to the Thames) but people will pay crazy prices for something they want these days!!

I couldn't bear having Britcliffe peering through my nets from Scaitcliffe House.

But you could wave to me when I'm at the back door(probably a worse prospect still)

The photograph in the Observer looked very impressive, though I don't know if it had been airbrushed to make it look more picturesque.

Sorry for those who haven't seen it, as the photo isn't on the website.

There is a suprising lack of photographs on the actual development's site. That's all there usually is.

When I last spied it it was just a steel frame and that was at the beginning of the month. Dont think it is worth the cost for a pad there considering it reminded me of the building of the Asda back in the 80's.
