I obviously have a budget that's on the small side-I am single and always have been. Just me and one DC. These are ones I've been sent by an estate agent. I am relocating for work but also just had a bit of a bad time and need a fresh start.

People on here seem to like looking at houses anyway! And I just felt maybe someone may give me some reasons for/against any of them that the untrained eye (mine) may not have noticed. I am getting a lot of opinions from friends but they've all just served to confuse me even more as they're all vastly different!

I like the White House just because it's clean, modern and ready to go.
I couldn't get your first link to work so browsed and found this one.

It's 59 monk ings that i meant to link to, sorry if it hasn't worked! I can't check as the link isn't working for me at all now for some reason! Thank you for that last link too, I like that house. I've not heard good things about batley but then people who know the area seem to be saying similar about birstall! I'd not thought about Drighlington either. Seems I should go back to the drawing board and have a look again.

I'm not bothered about sleeping on the ground floor having lived in bungalows AND had downstairs bedrooms before. I am not going to be happy with just a downstairs bathroom and they're apparently harder to get mortgages on so thanks for posters who've pointed that out too, that's that one ruled out.
I'm not the biggest fan of modern decor, white and grey everything but, decor can be changed can't it...
