So...we live in a ground floor flat with a spacious garden in London suburbs.
It's a block of four, so we have one 2 bed flat above us, one beside, and one diagonals above, ie above the aside.
Our upstairs neighbours are generally pleasant people but we hear them going about their business. It drives me to distraction and makes me feel like I am living with a lack of privacy. Tonight they are having a party, it's not outrageous, but I can hear chatter and what music is being played, particularly the base! It's not really reasonable to ask them to turn it down, they don't do it often, and given I have noisy toddlers, they are by comparison to us, the perfect neighbours. I just get irritated.
So. If we bought a house, we would have a massive mortgage and no savings amd unable to have holidays, imwouldmalso be scared by potential interest rate rises. Do i:
Suck it up for now
Move and accept smaller living accommodation in semi detached property
Have CBT as I am the only one in the family that gets annoyed by others noise
Move areas to a cheaper place even though schools may be an issue
My other question is given my need of quiet...does anyone live in semi detached in peace? If so, where what how..
Ideas Gratefully received?
