I prefer the second one.
In my opinion, the internal fittings and decorations of the second one are in a better condition and their style matches my personal taste much better.
If I were to buy the second one I can move in without renovation. But for the first one I will need to refurbish the bathrooms and completely change the colour scheme of bedrooms and the kitchen. The cost of refurbishment outweighs the benefit of having a conservatory.
Given the fact that second one sold at 171,500 last year, if I were to table an offer for the first one it would be 171,500 - refurbishment cost.0 -
Another agreement with Davesnave. That conservatory looks like a flat pack bodge-it-yourself job, and so reduces the value of the house.0

Wait for it to sell and you'll then know.Thrifty Till 50 Then Spend Till the End
You can please some of the people some of the time, all of the people some of the time, some of the people all of the time but you can never please all of the people all of the time0 -

Imagine someone holding forth on biology whose only knowledge of the subject is the Book of British Birds, and you have a rough idea of what it feels like to read Richard Dawkins on theology: Terry Eagleton0 -
I also agree that the cheap looking conservatory doesn't add value/improve the property.
The second house is far better, imho.Mortgage-free for fourteen years!

Hard to tell.
The difference in price could be explained by the years difference and the fact it has an extra room effectively.
Personally, I think the one that sold back in 2018 looked like more money had been spent on the interior - it’s the one I would choose out of the two (a decent conservatory can be added later).0 -

Not all of us can be browsing the internet every day you know, some of us have other things to do.
If I choose to catch up and post replies to posts I am free to do so.
Also, did the OP instruct you as their agent to follow up replies? :rotfl:Blackpool_Saver is female, and does not live in Blackpool0
