Yes, a lot of work is needed here, but I suspect this 1960s renovation project in West Rainton, Durham, will catch someone's eye. Especially at £215k. https://t.co/GNvLEbPHgx

Not a maker I usually feature on here, but The Weller lambswool scarf range by 80s Casuals is well worth pointing out. Designs inspired by scarves worn by Paul Weller in the late '70s and into the '80s. https://t.co/vciWz2NNcc

Originally the work of architect Ian Preston, the wonderful 1950s Klee House in Little Kingshill, Buckinghamshire, which was restored around 20 years ago, is now up for sale. https://t.co/eXbNValHiV

You don’t have to be a fan of The King to love this, but it helps to justify the price of the Pro-Ject Elvis Turntable. A '68 Comeback Special - and those letters light up. https://t.co/gawu0YkgyL

Go plain or go colourful. Whatever you do, the Dawson retro swivel chairs at Habitat are perfect for kicking back after a tough day. Affordable retro, which is what Habitat does so well these days. https://t.co/4hiDAignGv

Not cheap by any means, but I love the look of these Andy Warhol neon signs for your home. Most are back in stock too. https://t.co/bzja8slumL

Bringing back memories of car journeys as a small child is this Revival Flask by Thermos. And I’m all for it. In the sale too. https://t.co/uxijmG9jvF

Not just an amazing location overlooking the sea, the Ravenscroft 1960s midcentury modern house in St. Margarets Bay, Kent, is also a rather cool house. https://t.co/0y73gew5dl

There’s a ’70s revival going on right now, and this Newcool 1970s-style bedroom furniture, newly launched at La Redoute, fits right in. https://t.co/X5sx75hiGR

One band will forever be associated with this place. And if you’re a fan of The Smiths - or just want to support a northern institution - this Salford Lads Club sweater at Joanie is for you. https://t.co/owb53lMqbX

There is a t-shirt version too, but the Steve McQueen-inspired polo sweatshirt by Sound Is Colour is probably more for now. A replica of the one worn by McQueen in the Thomas Crown Affair. https://t.co/uLhW92W62S

Love Bowie and comic books? You might be the target market for Icongraphics: David Bowie, a graphic novel that combines both and covers his Berlin years. https://t.co/2V3E1ksKTg

Another potential renovation project, this 1960s modern house in West Malling, Kent, is on the market with original features, a great location and a good-sized garden too. https://t.co/C3NfUaGfoC

This 1960s midcentury modern house in Henley-on-Thames, Oxfordshire, is one of the best preserved designs I’ve seen in a long time. So many original details still in place. https://t.co/aYaJ8wowKn

A quick reminder that this 1960s time capsule in Lower Earley, Reading, Berkshire, goes up for auction in just under two weeks. https://t.co/RuI6GZfGUw

Largely untouched by time, the Maze Hill midcentury modern house in St Leonards-on-Sea, East Sussex, is a thing of beauty. https://t.co/kEqyB8OjEw

Quite the surprise beyond the front door of this 1970s time capsule in Mansfield, Nottinghamshire. An interior pretty much untouched in 50 years, and also one of the cheapest houses I have featured on the site. https://t.co/xTXTB40JWa

Plenty of options when it comes to this kind of design, but the affordable budget mushroom lamps at H&M Home are worth checking out. A great retro look, plenty of colours and an affordable price tag. https://t.co/0Yyf7iRbcu
