I disagree that the blinds are a telltale sign that it is an older householder.
Most of the houses in our cul-de-sac have them and residents' ages range from 20s to 70s.
They give some privacy and can be opened/closed as needed.
Now, net curtains on the other hand - yuk!!!
I totally get the privacy aspect...but still regard them as yuk...yuk...yuk territory and if they were prevalent in offices I worked in then they aren't for me by definition.
Not very keen on net curtains either in my case:(
Somebody somewhere is missing out on a business opportunity:huh: as to just what people are supposed to do in these circumstances.
I've searched and searched and am having problems in dealing with the "privacy curtains" scenario personally. I DO have some muslin curtains but they have "gone expensive" since and I don't regard "nets" as "modern" and am feeling a little bit lost as to just what to do...
If anyone has any suggestions as to just what to do regarding the privacy angle on windows when vertical blinds are regarded as old-fashioned/problematic on the one hand and net curtains are disliked on the other hand then I'd be only too pleased to hear them.0 -

With a yield of +7%, what a little goldmine.

That's what I call badly presented. "Oh be grateful" time...as that is exactly what I thought about the house I have just bought. It was definitely badly presented and I suspect I got it cheaper than I otherwise would as a consequence...0 -
That is a very grumpy looking cat!:(0 -

...and they didn't even bother to get that dustbin out of sight? They're not trying very hard to sell that house then are they?0 -
