    For the record my internal floor area is 50% larger.

    I guess bungalows are an acquired taste.

    And I'd still buy that over your student let pad.

    FWIW, in addition to the improvements suggested internally:-


    As a family home, I would be concerned about the ever changing neighbours - due to the quantity of flats e.g noise, neighbour friendliness and familiarity etc.

    From a practical POV, the primary school offerings are poor and they are not 'aspirational' from an OFSTED indication. The secondary options are a bit better, but still quite polarising imo.

    I don't think it's the price, but presentation and family prospects that let you down here.

    The parlous state (or otherwise) of my finances - while being entirely irrelevant given that the OP has asked for our opinion - does not preclude my having an opinion as to which property I prefer on paper.

    Oh but it does.

    It's easy to cast judgment on something that is a fantasy pipe-dream. When it becomes a reality to you, you'll start to see things differently.
