Special 1 Million Pound Properties

  • 2015-04-15T20:00:00Z1h

From Scottish castles to central London shoeboxes and some ex-council houses, a record number of British properties are valued at a million pounds plus. Filmed over one of the most unpredictable years the property market's ever known, this documentary reveals what a million pounds actually buys across the UK and uncovers a council house millionaire. In 2002, Kamal Hussein bought his four-bedroom North London council house from Islington Council for £157,000. It's now on the market for £1 million. With an eye on London's lucrative lettings market, 28-year old property developer Stefan Canavan thinks he's found a bargain, but before he can make an offer he needs an investor to go in on the deal.

With rare access to the super-prime property market, this documentary visits Britain's most exclusive homes, from a £20 million Mayfair townhouse to a 13th-century moated castle in Staffordshire.
