What made you buy your house?


Okay just a thought when you brought your house why did you fall in love with it,

What made you love that house; the feel, the area, the neighbours, a specific room like the kitchen - even if you knew you would change it later? what was it that made you choose your house?????

Re: What made you buy your house?


I chose my house when I had left the ex and was homeless for four months! I was living between my sisters and my mum and dads with the children so was keenly looking. I could of picked very neat two/three bed house in the area I chose but wanted a three separate bedroom house so chose my one.

Was very tatty. Old 1970's brown carpet tiles throughout, nasty old wallpaper, horrendous loo and bathroom and dreary kitchen - but it had three separate bedrooms and original victorian fireplaces so chose this one and have done it all up!!

Just the kitchen left which is going to be delivered in April!!

Re: What made you buy your house?


We were renting so had to move quickly. We just missed out on a Victorian house, and this one wasn't even on the market, but the agent had just that day taken an instruction. We went to see it, and just fell in love with it and made an offer for the full asking price - the space (4 floors), the style (regency), the proximity to the town centre (a double edged sword), and really just its uniqueness and potential together with the fact that we just felt at home immediately did it for us. Sometimes I still can't believe we live in it!! (won't say own coz that honour belongs to the mortgage co)

It was covered in white-painted wood-chip and we have done a lot to it over the 8 years and 1 day we've been here - all that remains of any real significance is the kitchen!!
