Dd is nearly 2. Our very small house, with zero storage, is bursting at the seams. Dd bedroom is a small room, only accessible through our v small bedroom.
The location of the house is overly convenient for us. GPs, who look after DD while OH and I both work live 2 mins away, we have a large garden, and her potential nursery is 2 mins away. The street is safe, neighbours are lovely, and we have a little oasis, tucked away in a huge bustling city.
OH and I both would like more children. However, the house as it stands, is putting the stoppers on any plans.
The house is very old, not listed, but terraced. Extensions may be possible, but would be limited size wise.
I am seriously considering the option of a sofa bed in our living room, so our bedroom can be used a big child's room.
Would I be crazy?! Is it a stupid thing to do? My thoughts are that we would NEVER be able to afford a big property with a garden in this area, and I just couldn't put a price on having the outdoor space. My DD spends so much of her time out there, rain or shine. Life is so convenient just now, so why move miles away for a big house with garden, but away from the 'easyness' this house offers, albeit, compact?!
