Work starts on the eagerly awaited new Foxtons office on Brixton Road

at that range you'd get shit particles in your food prep area
Is there not some law about two doors between toilets and kitchens and dining areas?

You sometimes see pubs and restaurants which have two doors on the way to the bathroom. My father in law built his own house and apparently the planning people were very definite about that.

It certainly used to be in the building regs "vented lobby between a toilet and kitchen" I'm afraid like many other sensible regs it's gone by the board.
 
A loo off a kitchen puts me right off, but that loo doesn't directly exit onto the kitchen, perhaps that's the reason it avoided building regs? Or it's a conversion that existed long enough to have the regs expire - can't remember what the timescales are though
 
not Brixton but :eek:
you'd need to be under 2 ft 4 inches to get into this flat or enter on all fours!!

Latest Foxton's very high priced central Brixton property.

I'm tempted to tag along for a viewing - I've always wondered what it was like inside the old St John's School.

Of course the purchaser will have a last few weeks to savour their local pub before it is demolished to make way for a midi sized residential tower.

Purchase price for this three/five bedroom "duplex" is £1,850,000 as per the Evening Standard yesterday. (Must be only one of several flats, since it is "share of freehold")

Nooo. That really depresses me. I'd always assumed that those buildings would be safe from the property locusts.

It's nice - I like the light and the studio space - lot of money though.

For that money I'd buy this which is near me, out in the suburbs :D
