looks nothing wrong with it other than needs brought into this century
The probability that the lean-to extension needs knocking down and rebuilding is ~100%, and I suspect anyone that spends a million quid on a house doesn’t want a kitchen in a corridor.

I dunno, wasn't going to assume he was dropping 7 figures on a property and then immediately 200k + on an entire replacement single story extension + lush magazine quality kitchen. Might just want it to be functional for a bit whilst they work their way around all the rooms.
Saying that, literally without fail, every property thats sold near me (Glasgow) thats been on our 'hit' list thats sold since early 2020 has 1) Gone for more than anything else on the entire street, despite being firmly in our 'hit' list, because its a pile and the only way we could afford one of the actual houses 2) despite new owners paying between 2x and 6x brand new mk8 Golf GTI over and above the asking price (which was already a joke), they've gone ahead and dropped north of 100/200k on an entire floor to ceiling glass murder window grand designs kitchen extension. 3) Some of them have then sold on again and somehow still made a profit (before tax, though suspect folk like this know how to avoid capital gains). So maybe they will do that.
Not mean't to sound like a rant, just perplexed by the incredible insanity that is the UK property market, its like Toronto's property market, but on an almost country wide scale. Are private Chinese property investor's moving into the UK in large numbers now, or is it still just a few? Briefly lived in Shanghai and was in total awe/shock of the way things work there and the cost.

Good luck!
Hate it when they call you again and are like 'we are now taking last, final and bestest offers, if you don't improve your offer won't even bother calling you back' kind of an affair, its like I'm already laying out a lifetimes promise of money (or two lifetimes in most cases now), and you have the cheek to ask for more?
House looks great, kinda an odd layout, not what I'd expect from the front street, sensible sized rooms so shouldn't be a pain to heat, looks nothing wrong with it other than needs brought into this century, epic potential though, and have a huge garden F+R is a nice thing to have. Hope you get it
