Compromising on rooms or a garden

[cakelover75]

Hello everyone,
Would like some words of advice/experience from you.

We are in a quandry over a house that we have viewed a few times. Inside, thr rooms are a decent size, the cupboards are so great it makes me weep, there are cupboards in the 2 smaller bedrooms so they wouldn't need wardrobes. But, the problem is the garden. The back garden is large and one half is on 3 tiers and the other half is a slope. I have an 18month old and would like to have another baby in the not so distant future....

So, do you think this house should be ruled out by its garden? I have a strong feeling it should be but my OH is dead keen

Plus the endless games of rolling down the hill.... toddlers don't have to be limited to flat ground you know

Plus, having looked at rightmove and google maps, it does not appear to be that scary a hill. Although I readily accept photos may be misleading.

do you know the reason i would not buy that is house is the fact of getting a buggy up those steps to the front door .
and coming down those step when icily.
and yes i have also not bought a house cos of a terrace garden

Lack of parking would put me off. If you look at the satellite picture of the street, most of the houses have drives and no one is parked in the road. Maybe that's why it hasn't sold?

The steps don't bother me as my previous place was a flat and I used to leave my buggy in the boot of my car and carry the baby up in her seat/my arms. Parking is also not a problem as most houses have their own driveway and that's why it looks as though there aren't many cars on the road. We've also viewed it 3 times as well as driven past it numerous times and there's always been an opportunity to park.

Have taken the link down now so thank you everyone for your input. You've given me a lot to think about. :)

Me again

So I went back to the house to specifically see the garden. There is one good sized flat bit which would easily hold a couple of outdoor toys (trampoline, slide etc). However, there are a couple of retaining walls in the garden which aren't in a great condition. Has anyone got any idea how much it costs to repair this kind of wall? Appreciate it's difficult to compare seeing as I don't know the exact size of mine but it would be useful to see how much we would need to spend.
