I have a nice home, it’s privately situated and not overlooked. It has a huge drive and space between the houses. But it’s reasonably old and things need doing in next few years like the roof, probably removing a couple of large trees, re doing the drive and maintaining large lawns. I just can’t really be arsed. The layout is irritating too (I know this isn’t a real proper problem in life but it annoys me!)
would I be an idiot to sell and move 0.25 miles up the road to a new build? For a similar price I can have a smaller and easier garden, great layout, no massive trees to deal with, no roof issues (for a while at least). I know new builds have their problems. And it would be a little overlooked and neighbours close. But on balance I really want to do it…
