DH and I are just starting to look at moving to a bigger house. A beautiful Art Deco semi has come up in our budget, but in a town that we had vetoed. The location is just no good for us, the main reason being that it will add another 40mins a day onto my commute, making a 11.5 hour day for me, probably worse for DH.
Other Cons: we were hoping for a decent size garden and it doesn't look very big in the pics, 36 foot it says, is that big? It is on a main road, although not that busy, very overlooked from the rear as there are two roads either side of it iyswim so overlooked from all 3 sides. It also needs a lot of work.
Pros: I've always loved art deco houses and it would look beautiful once done up, it has the extra reception room that we wanted, large bedrooms, faces a park to the front so is unoverlooked to that side.
I know if I go and see it, that I will fall in love with it (and will have to convince DH to buy it). Convince me that the cons outway the pros, they do say location, location, location don't they!
