Close to the village is a grand late-Georgian house, which is believed to have been a brewery and then a pub. From the front it screams classic country pile with its pillared portico entrance, but in 2022 it was remodelled internally. A geometric extension was added at the back and the basement was deepened to house a home cinema. There is a swimming pool too. The stepped-timber ceiling in the extension surrounding a roof lantern is the most striking design feature. It's set over a sunken sitting area next to the marble-topped kitchen. £2.75m, Savills, 01444 446 008 Photograph: Savills
Just off Blackheath Hill, before it reaches the green spaces of Greenwich Park and Blackheath, is a new development. The building of 43 apartments has brick archways on the top, framing the views from the communal roof garden. There is a two-bedroom apartment for sale on the third floor with a private balcony. The palette is soft and earthy; there are plaster-coloured cupboards in the kitchen and a matt terracotta splashback against Italian quartz worktops. Greenwich and Deptford DLR stations are a 10-minute walk away. £545,000, Vabel, 0207 183 6405 Photograph: Billy Bolton/Vabel
The village sits on the north-western fringes of the North York Moors national park and 10 miles south of Middlesbrough. There is a neat brick house on the outskirts of Great Broughton in an American modernist style. The interiors give mid-century Mad Men vibes with a materials palette of sapele-clad walls, flush plywood doors and internal glazing. The sitting room is triple aspect with a wide fireplace in Danish brick. Upstairs are four bedrooms and a family-sized bathroom. There are two pubs in the village. £625,000, The Modern House, 0203 795 5920 Photograph: The Modern House
On top of a sloping road – as urban becomes greenbelt, and close to Smithills country park – is a contemporary detached house clad in timber. The cantilevered design means the upper floor overhangs an entrance set at the centre of floor-to-ceiling glass panels. The open-plan kitchen-dining and living areas wrap around a central wooden unit, which cleverly houses the staircase, s downstairs bathroom, a wine cooler and the TV and sound system. There is a sun deck to the front and an alfresco dining area that mirrors the internal one. £900,000, Savills, 0161 711 0990 Photograph: Savills
A seven-minute walk from Forest Gate station, and the Elizabeth line, is an orange-hued brick block of townhouses built in 2021. Within the building is a three-storey property with a roof terrace. Despite its muted exterior, the inside is a carnival of colour: different themes for different rooms; and hand-painted murals. The entrance hall is painted in an electric blue. The reception room has pink walls and sky effect wallpaper on the ceiling, and opens out on to a courtyard. The EPC rating is B. £920,000, The Modern House, 0203 795 5920
