Monday blog round-up
September 28th, 2009 by claire.mitchellWe’re easing gently into a new working week with a look at some of our favourite property blogs.
New to our roll of honour is Brickwork who, in their own words “exist to provide an insight into the world of prime and A-Z celebrity London bricks and mortar” – everything we love all rolled into one. Recent celebs under the spotlight include Frank Lampard (and his not-so-modest extension), Sienna Miller and Dawn French. They’re also highlighting some pedigree properties on the market, including 6 Victoria Square, the London house used in Howard’s End.

Old favourites The Rat and Mouse have gone all celeb on us too this week, with the news that Elle ‘The Body’ MacPherson has finally sold her Notting Hill home, and that James May’s lego house met its match with a bulldozer.
Rich at 4Homes is also talking about James May’s lego house, along with advice on how to find a builder.
Over at Winging It, Mike’s graph of the week is based on the latest Hometrack survey, which looks at the house price recovery in recent months. Mike’s also exploring the kitchen of the future.
The Royals of Rent ladies are taking a look at the Knight Frank London Residential Review for Autumn 2009.
A Slice of the Property Cake’s Mr Jackson has found a former lighthouse keeper’s cottage for sale in Aberdeen. And he’s been rooting around on eBay again – this week he’s come across street signs being auctioned off by Westminster Council. The original Abbey Road or Covent Garden signs, anyone?
