it does look very nice but rather smaller than here even.....the price is good but i think an extension would almost be a necessity
i don't think i could go much smaller than i am now without feeling like Alice in Wonderland........... |

I'd love it. Just think of all the stuff you'd have to throw away to fit in to it - it would be fantastically liberating!
Very high up though, by the looks of it? |

 Not sure that Severn Trent would be too happy with Arvo's borehole excavations, we live right next to a pumping station.

The two of us currently live in a two bed bungalow and one bedroom is really a shed/store so we'd be fine. That's one of the main problems we've found while house hunting somewhere with land, the houses tend to be much too big. I want a decent bit of land not a five bed mansion. Shame this one isn't in a different areas with some more land.

we have the opposite problem - lots of land and only two bedrooms for five of us. | ||

This one is in a lovely area, somewhat remote, very beautiful, about half an hour from the coast.
Now if someone fancies buying a big house with not much land within a mile of the beach I think I could have a plan...

having crammed a three bedroom house with 2 outhouses into a 1 bedroom and broom cupboard house with no living room and upped the animal quota, i feel i would like a bit more space
mind you....it is great for getting you outside as you feel too cramped inside to stay there apart for in the evening..... |

Sounds lovely - DP is currently going 'wahhhhhh' as he was sent details of 3 beds with 6 acres less than 10 miles from the mainline to swindon somewhere in Wales today.... for 165K...
.... I think he has woken up to what he 'lost' by moving from semi-rural south east village, to here... He's pushing on with the DIY though. Helen_A who is confused because she thought her DP wanted suburbia but is now wondering if he has changed his mind. |
