Housing needs and expectations change as you age and your lifestyle changes.
Have moved home 7 times in the last 25 years, always houses tied to my husband's job so you have to adapt and make best of what you get. Where we are now is spacious and is probably the best house we've ever had for location and comfort. Hardly know we have neighbours unless you need something, all mod cons but i still find it's not perfect. When it's just me and the cats am rattling around in it, when sons and husband are in I need space! Too much housework is a pain and it's dusty being on a farm and we get invaded by flies for 9 months of the year...and it's way too hot here in the summer. Would prefer somewhere like the little cottage mentioned in previous post, perhaps down the Ribble Valley or in Lake District...and a summer house on Lake Garda!
