Bit of background, sold our smallish 3 bed semi for £147k last week and were planning on putting an offer in on a slightly larger 4 bed detached. Both are less than 10 years old so room sizes aren't fantastic, as is the case with most new builds! We're looking to offer £175k on the bigger house.
However, a while back, we also went to look at a massive 4 bed detached, been extended, great room sizes, bit older. We fell in love.....
Bigger house on for offers over £205k (Scotland!) so we did out sums and offered £192k (cheeky) on Monday, which was
rejected. Upped the offer to £197k on Tuesday, also rejected. This afternoon we have bid £200k and this is our last throw of the dice as this is really stretching us. SO nervous now and stomach is in knots......we would probably never need to move, have two DDs and would like one more baby (if we are blessed) and house is close to family and loads of amenities ........please cross your fingers for DH and I?!
