Five period properties with distinctive architectural features have been listed for sale across England and Scotland, with asking prices ranging from £525,000 to £1.15 million.
In Ipswich, Suffolk, Morpeth House, a seven-bedroom Victorian property with a blue plaque commemorating former resident Charles Whitfield King, is on the market for £950,000. The property spans three floors and includes three reception rooms, original fireplaces, cornicing and ceiling roses. The grounds contain a coach house and an octagonal garden.

Scottish coastal property
A three-bedroom terrace cottage in Elie, Fife, is listed at £525,000 through Savills. Located 42 miles from Edinburgh in the East Neuk of Fife, the property features white masonry with blue detailing and overlooks the high street. The cottage includes a sitting room, dining room, and kitchen with garden access.
In Radcliffe on Trent, Nottinghamshire, Elm House, a six-bedroom detached Victorian property on Cropwell Road, is available for £1 million through Fine & Country. The property sits behind a low brick wall with a wrought-iron gate and features a walled rear garden.
Converted and residential properties
A converted Victorian police station on Alma Terrace in York has been listed for £1.15 million. The property, which originally housed three holding cells and two dwellings for officers, now functions as a five-bedroom house with an office and bar. The Modern House is marketing the property, which features arched windows, decorative chimneys, and a south-west facing courtyard garden.
In Clapham, London, a Victorian terrace cottage that has not been converted into flats is available for £850,000 through Marsh & Parsons. The two-bedroom property on a residential road near the diamond conservation area includes a double reception room and kitchen-diner with garden access. Planning permission has been secured for a full loft extension. The property’s retention as a single dwelling is notable in an area where residential property conversions have become increasingly common.
The listings reflect continued demand for period properties with original features across various price points in the residential market, though affordability concerns persist in the wider housing sector.
