Why do you turn a thread about anywhere in the country into one about Aberdeen / Central London Crashy? I don't think Peterborough is suffering from the slump in Brent Crude...0

I don't know how much you can get off for that. The kitchen looks okay to me from the photos, but maybe it's falling to bits?
The current owners probably think it's all perfectly functional and nice, so they won't take kindly to hearing that you want to beautify the place at their expense by deducting the cost from what you offer them. They might also argue that it would be worth a lot more if it were all done up.No reliance should be placed on the above! Absolutely none, do you hear?0 -

You could just buy a smaller clock rather than dedicating a whole room. Many can be attached to a wall or placed on the mantle piece."Real knowledge is to know the extent of one's ignorance" - Confucius0 -
I would like to thank you all for providing me the guidance. Now I can clearly make a decision based on your suggestions.

Refurbing that would be a lifestyle choice not a necessity
you can't knock anything off the value for that0 -
