What to offer!

Mo77

When searching for advice tips in conveyancing, its mentioned that members can get advice on properties and even possibly what to offer.

The following 3 properties are what I'm interested in.

1) rightmove.co.uk/s6p/53705130
2) rightmove.co.uk/s6p/72987584
3) rightmove.co.uk/s6p/53280438

My favourite is number 1). It has a great rear garden and I can see a nice ground floor extension replacing the conservatory.problem is my Mrs hates it and prefers 2) fantastic sunroom with views and 3) great garden.

All 3 have been in the market a few weeks, with no offers so far.

What are you thoughts? Which do you like the look of / potential.

I agree with your wife - not at all keen on 1 (from photos), 2nd is favourite and 3rd is nice too. The 3rd looks to have lovely gardens

1 is ugly. Even when you've removed the drab fixtures and fittings it will still be ugly. And your wife hates it. So it is never going to be an option. Beggars belief that the opinions of strangers interest you more than hers.

Ouch! Bit harsh when I was asking for feedback regarding the houses in a "forum".

He didn't say your wife was ugly....:)

I'm not keen on any of them, especially the barn-conversion types, because they will involve some shared facilities, management committees and so on. They may have some character, but I know a few barn complexes and they may attract a certain sort of character too.....

That leaves the one on the Garth, which is the poor relation in the close, but even if it lacks character, with one arm twisted behind my back, I'd have to go for that, square windows and all.

Yes, getting rid of the conservatory and extending might be an option, if a window could be added in the north wall of the dining room, or it would end up being very dark. The house would by then be somewhat 'bottom heavy, though.

I agree with your wife I like no 2, love the bi folding doors.

No 1 the house is nice but yes would chance the conservatory.

No sure on no 3 as I do like a sun room, or larger area into the garden but it very nice looking.

I guess have a look and get a feel for them if you haven't.

I prefer 2 or 3 as well. I don't like the vastness of the open plan room in 1 but if you redecorated and furnished it appropriately it may be alright.
3 looks really lovely.

You asked for "you [sic] thoughts". They were provided.

I too agree with your wife, 1 is awful.
Love the others, both have character, that's totally lacking in no 1.

I like no 1 the best because it is on a big plot and the back garden isn't overlooked which it is for numbers 2 and 3. I would probably want to change the windows though on no 1.



I hate the barn conversion with the doors that look out onto a small backgarden and the other bit of garden isn full view of the house on the otherside of the boundary.


The terraced cottage also has a backgarden that is very overlooked.
