Exclusive access to garden of ground floor flat

No, not for any price. If I did not want a garden then I would move into a block without

Also as this is only a holiday home it makes it even more of an issue trying to take garden and car space from someone whos full time home it is.

I wouldn't want to live downstairs fromm someone I'd annoyed by a) trying to prevent them accessing their garden and b) bringing in a noisy animal.

I don't think this is the house, or the neighbour, for you. Bad blood before you've even met. Move on.

So, let me get this right, you wouldn't sell the garden for, oooh, £10 million, £100 million....? For that money, you could buy a new flat with a garden and still have an awful lot left over. But you'd turn it down. Complete nonsense, if I may say so. Some things are a point of principle, but not this.

I think he probably meant he wouldn't sell it for any amount that the prospective buyer might conceivably offer.

What a bizarre thing to say, a projection based on absolutely nothing but clearly touching a nerve and giving us an insight into the way you see yourself.

BBQs - priceless!

Possibly you're the sort of person I'm describing. You can stereotype these sorts of people with almost pinpoint precision. My comment may sound random, but I'll bet I'm right.

The lease for the upper flat basically states that they could not have a pet that caused a nuisance. There is nothing in their lease with regards to the freeholders responsibilities towards them that mentions pets.

I know nothing about leases, but can it be possible that two apartments in the same building have different rules regarding pets? Wouldn't this be a discriminatory?

Do you really believe the above to be a likely scenario in this case

Of course not, but I was just exploring the logic of what you were saying. Here's a recap:

Wouldn't you? If the price were right?

No, not for any price.


What you meant is that you'd want an awful lot, because a garden's valuable to you. I guess you felt it was too dull to say that.
