For Sale: Linkenholt Village PLUS Church!
Linkenholt, a picturesque village near Andover in Hampshire, is currently for sale in the “real world” (via boingboing). Price tag is 25 million pounds. With around 40 souls inhabiting the place, it is not hard to believe that in Linkenholt everyone knows everyone else. The village comes with 22 cottages, a cricket club, a blacksmiths and a manor house. But NOT with the 12th century church, as it does not belong to the seller (Herbert and Peter Blagrave Charitable Trust).
WhatsYourPlace, the world’s only community for location enthusiasts and their favorite places, makes the following breath-taking offer:
Own the entire village in virtual terms - for as little as 100 USD. And the best thing: the 12th century church St. Peter’s is INCLUDED! No need to do any travelling, as virtual Linkenholt is only one click away.
What other bloggers are saying about Linkenholt Village:
- Annette from “Fun With Play-Dough” is most interested in the -as she hopes - shirtless blacksmith.
- Jess from Primelocationblog would like to rename the village. Whereas this might not be possible for the real place, you can of course rename your WYP parcels as you wish.
- The editor from newslite.tv finds a major drawback in Linkenholt not having its own pub, which for him “would be a prerequisite of living in a quiet country village, let alone buying one”
