hi, so ive been looking for a house for a while that comes with land so i can expand my smallholding. my budget is between £330-£350k. i have been unable to find much for that budget even though im open to most area, mainly because i have to be in catchment for good schooling.
so there are 2 houses i like...(although have not viewed yet)
house A comes with about 1 acre is 4 bedroom, but is on a nation speed limit road. (option to purchase further land)
in donington priced at £345k
House B is 3 bedrooms, sits of 2.5 acres and is on a 50mph road
was previously one the market for over a year and didn't sell due to the road, but relisted. this is located in utterby and is on for £360k
ideally i want to live down a nice country lane but it seems that you pay the price for that. i also see the positive of living on a road as with the smallholding i would need to bring in customers to buy chickens, veg etc. as i could put a board up and more people would see it. this will be our forever house. so i dont want to make a mistake
can anyone tell me if it would be the worst decision to buy a house on such a busy road?
thank you
