Looking ahead to when we might move in 2-3 years, what do you think is essential?
This is what we have already:
neutral decor throughout, new family bathroom, large en suite that was replaced 15 years ago so will do again, John Lewis kitchen (light wood rather than latest craze for white), decent neutral carpets, fairly new double glazing, tidy pretty garden.
But it 's the DCs rooms that worry me. They have left home but still store their stuff because they are each renting rooms in shared houses, so we are holding onto stuff in their rooms- books on shelves, CDs etc. Their bedroom furniture is fairly old fashioned pine (not really old and stripped.)
Looking at houses nearby for sale they all look like something from The White Company- all white furniture, tastefully done.
IYO is it worth getting rid of the pine furniture and replacing it with white from say Ikea? The bedrooms aren't huge and it would give an appearance of more space and light. We are going to replace their carpets anyway.
House is worth around £650 -£675K and I think we could get the higher figure if it looked nicer.
Or do people look beyond sellers furniture?
