Bungalow

[EllieRay]

We have found a property for sale, our dream plot. Loads of space for the kids, wrap around private garden in our budget.

The catch is that it's a bungalow and not a house. We would extend the bungalow to give us a big kitchen family space but all bedrooms would stay downstairs.

Going up wouldn't be an option as it would be out of our budget/push the ceiling price of the house.

We would have plenty of space and the plot we want but we are struggling to come to terms with living in a bungalow as a young family.

Any pros and cons of bungalow living?

I live in a bungalow

It has a walk in cupboard in the hallway

We call it - the cupboard under the stairs !

We’re in a 3 bed bungalow... it’s actually on the market right now!
It’s fab living in one and I’ll be sad to leave it. It’s easy living!

No toys in the lounge as the kids play in their rooms more, although I spend a lot more time in my room too as it’s equal distance from the kitchen to the lounge and my kids often watch telly in the lounge so I just use my laptop in my room.

We also have separate living spaces so non of the ‘daytime rooms’ sit directly next door to the bedrooms. Great as the kids don’t get disturbed of an evening.

Love love love the amount of garden we have too... and that no neighbours Can overlook us.
