Timber frame cob walling?

[Bayliss]

Situated in Norfolk, what a super home this looks it could be! Have previously enjoyed living under timber framed/lath & plaster/ thatched but never timber frame/cob walls under tiles.
You're knowledge and comments gratefully received.

Bayliss - did you mean to include a link, or perhaps a picture, in your post? Otherwise it doesn't seem to make much sense!

I recommend posting before your third pint! :wink:

Just got back from a short break-a-way hence reply delayed. Feel sick as a pig at the moment as the property I mentioned I see has now been sold over the weekend

its still listed on rightmove Ref : 15813/GT. East Harling priced at £320,000 My property search is not going well for me at the moment, hopefully reasons behind that.

Are you sure it's sold? The Rightmove page is marked "withdrawn by agent", which may not necessarily mean that it's sold. Sometimes, if a property has "stuck" for some time the vendor/agent will withdraw it for a few months and then "re-launch" it when the market has picked up a bit (e.g. in the Spring). Or other factors might have cropped up.

If you're really keen on the house, I should still register your interest with the agent. You never know.... !

Indeed, some estate agents will re-list a property with a new reference number, so that it's listing history (i.e time on market, price changes etc.) can't be traced with tools like property bee, so it appears as a property 'new to the market'

Lovely house hope its still available.

Emailed the agent now and asked that if it becomes available to let me know. Although on my PC it is shown as 'sold STC' never know irt may come back for sale.

Sweet little house Bayliss, with a great sized garden/land for that price :wink:

Don't lose hope - when we were thinking of moving last year I saw a house on RM (in a completely different part of the country to where we were living), but unfortunately it, too went SSTC before we were ready (ours was not yet on the market). Fast forward a few months and I was scouring RM again for similar Arts & Crafts/A&C influenced houses only to see it had become available again

We got house on the market as soon as we could - it had been a *mahoosive* project so it wasn't a case of just de-cluttering for sale as there were still a few things to finish (you know how it is!) - and we were very lucky in that we accepted an offer on ours quite quickly and the place we wanted was still available!

After that things moved really fast and within less than four months of initially marketing ours we were settling into our new home.......

Good luck, hope it all works out for you.
