I'm hoping for a bedroom big enough to have a comfy reading/cross stitching nook.
The one we're viewing on Thursday has a lot of potential, but needs quite a bit of work (for one it need to be un-beige-ed). The price is good, but I, and I think my sister also, want something that needs little work. I don't mind painting and maybe replacing carpets. I also don't mind it if the bathroom and/or kitchen isn't completely to our taste as long as it's works we can always change it in the future.
Hopefully we can determine where which town we want to live, then I can start looking for a job. |
The two appear to be almost
identical in square footage (meters), so basically, the trade-off to get 4 BR is that the larger bedrooms in place 1 will be quite a bit smaller and something else, like House 1's "office" in the hallway, will have vaporized. (IDK, that wee house is
very cute. I'd see if Sis could overcome a small distance issue!)
Myself...somewhere in time, my trolley left the tracks, and while I live pretty happily with Mr. H, I don't know if I could ever live with a family member or the like again. I really like my PRIVACY and my control over my own home. (And the TV remote, the kitchen...lol, you name it.)
It must be nice to be able to do so! I'd be bonkers, lol.
