1,001 Abandoned houses - Studlands Estate. Oct 08

[Random]

That's pretty surreal, reminds me a bit of those towns they built in Nevada for the atomic tests in the 50s.

empty houses newmarket

I Think They are unoccupied because of the End of the Cold War,They remind me of a Council Estate with them all being the Same,

...They were put on the market a few at a time by a local estate agent....

I bet I know who that was

Quite possibly my brother dealt with this.... 'tis a small world

 

[Keep out!]

It's just crazy that a whole estate like this is just left standing empty, when there are so many homeless people, and people on low incomes who desparately need houses.

One of the most sensible posts I've seen on this forum. The ammount of wasted space available for re-use in the UK is disgusting.

Could not agree more, there is an estate not far from where I work all borded up doing nothing.

It looks a bit like where I used to live on RAF Woodbridge. (US military built also)

I lived there from 1999 - 2001, we had a bungalow and they were huge. The word was the houses were getting knocked down as most of the lads had been moved to a new estate on the western side of Ipswich.

When I left, there wern't many of us still there, I think about 15 couples and that was like a bit of a ghost town. We wern't all together either, there were three in my street of 18 houses, we were all spread out.

Imagine my surprise when I put my old postcode into a house price checker and my house had been sold in 2006 for £131,000.

I'm over that way next month and will have to drop by and see if any of it has been demolished.
