I am struggling with the very British middle class concept of houses over apartments as a famly dwelling. I am reluctantly downsizing and everything I look at gives one of the dcs a box room size bedroom, and a cramped amount of living space in comparision to what we are used to. Plus they are usually not what I want and the street is not as good as I wish. Typically everything I like is out of my price range.
Well .... now I have found a freehold conversion apartment (cannot being myself to call this a flat!) where the smallest bedroom is 17 x 9.3 but is directly off the dining room. I just not sure if this would work (although DD is very keen and is not bothered by the double doors).
It has a lovely patio area for me to potter, a good expanse of grass for the children (admittedly on a slope) and a copse at the back where I could build them a fab treehouse. (DS loved this area)
oh hell, look here is the link

Would you buy a huge apartment in a better street or a smaller house in a not so good street
