Hi all contemplating a move...

Whats features are more important?

A.
A large beautiful Victorian conversion flat in a very sought after area, with communal/shared main entrance and shared garden, neighbours above

OR

B. A small pretty maisonette, newish look, less desirable location (not dreadful but not sought after either), own private entrance, own garden and internal stairs so house feel, neighbour above.

Basically in your opinion is space more important than having your own personal entrance and own garden


Many thanks

It's all about how much you use your garden. If a lot, then go for the more modern one. If you're not interested in a garden, go for the other one. If you have small children they will probably use the garden a lot, and of course those sharing it may change - you may or may not get on with them.

Surely it depends whether you have children or not?

No children = definitely the desirable Victorian conversion

Children = definitely the maisonette (unless schools were appalling)

Then stop worrying - you'll be happy in either.
