To buy a house with no parking when I have a 3 month old baby

[Surprisedmom]

So, as the title says really. I’m a single mom without a huge budget so I know I need to compromise. I’m considering buying a house that is ideal except for the fact that there is no parking in front of the house. There’s parking about 20metres away on the road then you walk up a little path (about 10 metres) to the front garden. I really just want advice from anyone who has done something similar with a little one. My feeling is that I could do it and it’s no worse than being on a busy street where you might end up parking far away from your front door anyway. So, wise people of mumsnet, do you think this is a compromise worth taking for the biggest house I can offord in a decent area?

I’d go there are at different times of the day to have a really good look and see if it varies. That’s the mistake we made, there was always plenty of parking at 4pm on a school day when we viewed. If we’d tried again at 6 we’d have seen the guy opposite who parks his green grocers van across 3 spaces!
