I’ve been looking at hundreds of house listings (because we’re looking to buy a house) and I’ve been looking at one house that has been bought 8 months ago and renovated throughout and has been put up for sale. It’s sort of made me feel sad because they have done a lovely job and I’m sure they’ve done a fair amount of work on the place, however in my opinion it’s now going to be the most expensive house on the whole street. It’s relatively small or average for the area but it’s really got top end bathroom taps and extremely fancy shower and free standing bath, the kitchen is also looking pretty fancy. I feel happy that the house has been done up (completely daft I know) but I know it’s not right for us as we’d much prefer a bog standard bathroom and kitchen. I’ve been told they’ll rent it out next week if it doesn’t sell.
I guess I’ve just been ruminating about it, and I think maybe they’ve broken a golden rule of making the house the most expensive one on the street. I’m far from an expert! I’m very much just an armchair amateur and I’ve just been looking at every house for sale in the area! I’ve become sucked in and it can become fascinating looking at each house and wondering about the family that’s lived there.
