We have been living in our current home for over a year now and I'm still not entirely happy. To give you a bit of background, we were living in a 1-bed flat in zone 2 London, got pregnant and moved into a 3-bed house further out. When I was 7 months pregnant our seller pulled out, and it was a bit of a scramble to find our current home. We ended up buying in an area which wasn't my preferred choice, but seemed sensible at the time. Pros are that we have amazing neighbours, house is in a safe neighbourhood and we have more space. Cons are the area - I find it a little dull and our street is not the prettiest. House also needs work, but it's still quite liveable. We're also that little bit further from the tube, which at the time of buying seemed like a fair compromise, but is proving tricky now that our daughter is here.
DH is really happy here, and on paper, my cons hardly amount up to anything, BUT I don't like the area, even though I feel I ought to. Am I mad to be considering a move? Have you? Would you?
