Got a spare $500,000?
Everyone knows the cost of living in London is outrageous. Recently voted the world's most expensive city by UBS Warburg, its a wonder I can afford lunch. Those cappucinos and weekend trips to the nail bar are a thing of the past... I thought our 'quality of life' was supposed to get better as we got older? Hmmm...The same report that talks about how expensive London is also mentions that 'It’s no wonder that their residents often tolerate extreme commutes in order to find affordable housing...'
No doubt you've heard my incessant complaining about the construction noise outside my flat (that starts at 7am seven days a week no less!). It could be worse, I could be living on the street. Or in Tottenham.
But now our friends at Daily Candy have turned me on to a fun little option. Think of it as kind of newfangled trailer park, the 'Retreat Home' takes the trash out of the trailer by creating a sleek timber cube on wheels. For the mere price of £250,000 ($500,000), the home offers modern finishes, floor to ceiling windows and impeccable quality, the Retreat Home can be positioned in an open field or coutryside, in a holiday park, or even taken abroad and parked in Spain. I have recently learned that it can also be parked in someone's back garden. John Harber can be expecting a phone call soon...
