We'd like to buy a house.
I have an area i love but it is expensive - we might be able to afford a small three bed semi there. Its a coastal town, somewhere tourists love.
We've seen an amazing house - much bigger, period style, great garden and its under budget. But the area isn't as great. Its an okay town - not really somewhere you'd go to unless you had to.
Dh thinks we're mad to not jump at the period house. Aibu to really want to live in the lovely coastal town in a much smaller house?
We have three young kids - schools are good in both places. Dh works about 25 mins from both places. I'm at home with kids.
Two places are about 30 mins apart. Such an important decision as it will be the town where the kids grow up.
Which is more important - house or location?
