We are townies who are thinking of a move to the country.
We have viewed a good property that needs doing up (that's what we are looking for) but in is in a village where it seems like nothing much happens,
it has a pub (that isn't very nice) and a small shop.
The garden to the property is walled and enclosed but not very big and the wall is on the main road through the village, when you are in the garden it is lovely and private not really overlooked and has a view of the church in the background, but its not the type of garden I had imagined village life would bring.
Do you think that this could be a problem? when done up the house and attached barn would be about 7 bedrooms, do you think it sounds like it could feel unbalanced and be a problem when we come to sell as we don't think we would stay for longer than 6/7 years?
Do most people who live in the country want a big garden?
