westernindWe went to see the five bedroom Victorian house, and... no. Just no. I can overlook the trivial stuff like complete re-carpeting, but none of the doors fitted, which boded ill. The clincher was that they'd taken out the chimney breasts in the upstairs rooms, which would be a horror to put back. I don't mind the hard work bringing an old neglected house up to scratch (although S would take quite some persuading) but spending money on fixing vandalism is another matter.
On the other hand, we've put in a cheeky offer for a four bed Edwardian terrace which is in really nice nick.We shall see.
