House A. Nicely done up but too small for us. Most of our furniture won't fit as a lot of built in (but nice) cupboards. Need to convert garage into a bedroom and do an extension across the back to create decent sized kitchen -diner. No houses at the back, but not a huge garden. Good schools both close by (walking).
House B. In really bad nick. Needs new kitchen and bathroom but most of other work is done. A little bit bigger than house A (even when A is extended). Potential for loft to be done one day but it is not a straightforward job. All rooms have wallpaper everywhere including on the ceiling! Bathroom and kitchen are tiled horribly also floor to ceiling so redecoration is a major job, but it is still basically redecoration, not building work. Nice primary catchment, and only slightly further walk to secondary (maybe 10mins further). Nearer to forest (couple of mins walk as opposed to other one is about 15 mins walk to forest).
House A is 50 grand less so there is a building budget.
