Current house is very new- built in 2014. Previous house was built in the 1890s and before that we owned a flat in a converted early 1800s town house. Quite a contrast.

Our rental house is brand new. We moved in in November. The one we're buying is six years old, the one we just sold was 42 years old."If you think it's expensive to hire a professional to do the job, wait until you hire an amateur." -- Red Adair0

Mine was built mid 60's. Lots of space & storage & lovely big windows as a lot of '60's properties are.The bigger the bargain, the better I feel.
I should mention that there's only one of me, don't confuse me with others of the same name.1 -
