    Unless allready well priced to sell or things are moving £270 is in that region that screams make offers of £250k

    Not in that area! The house might be slightly overpriced but only slightly. I'd expect them to get somewhere near 260 quite easily

    I don't think that you'll have any trouble selling your house, you'll probably find buyers that will bite your hand off for that location. It's a classic 2nd-time-buyer house and it is nicely presented. It is in a nice road and a popular area as I'm sure you found when you bought it.

    Everything is clean and tidy and I like the garden, it's hard to make those long, narrow gardens look interesting but yours has potential.

    Good luck with the sale, let us know how it goes!

    For those posters who want the dimensions of the rooms these are available from the brochure referred to on the sale particulars.

    I think the house looks well presented - and looks pretty light, which is good.

    Hope you find the buyer you want, soon.
