House on the brain.

0

Even though we’ve settled into our new rented house, we’re still planning for the fact that next time we move it will be into our own house. I kinda love this house, great location, two train stops away from a beach, and a ten minute (if that) drive into town, close to public transport but not too close to a main road, etc. The yard is huge, it would be possible to subdivide and sell it. The kitchen has just …

New home.

After about three weeks of looking, and a few applications the boy and I (little one and the puppy) have somewhere to move too.

Time to move.

2

The boy and I rent a lovely little maisonette and our lease was for a year. Unfortunately, it’s the end of the lease and they are not renewing it. We have four weeks, well probably three now, to find a new house and to move into it. We’ve seen some nice places, one was a nice unit about the same size as this house, and a house which is much larger. Obviously the price is slightly more, but definitely something …
