WE mentioned these before and apparently they have gone on show.

A new generation of pre-fabricated homes by the flat-pack furniture firm Ikea went on show today.

The BoKlok concept homes, which some commentators believe could help resolve the country’s affordable housing crisis, were unveiled in Gateshead, Tyneside.

The first six of 93 units were nearing completion, and a two-bedroom show apartment – decked out in Ikea furniture – was opened for viewing by the media.

Prices start at £99,950 for a one-bedroom flat, and rise to £124,950 for a two-bedroom apartment.

Houses start at £132,500 for two beds, and £149,995 buys a three-bedroom home.

The timber-framed properties were aimed at households earning between £15,000 and £35,000 a year and will be sold on a rented, outright sale or shared-ownership basis.
