In our minds, it would have cost us approx: 25k in stamp duty and tax to move, and we’re quite happy where we are at the moment for school, convenience, etc.
And we would need to borrow probably £200-300k extra to buy a house nearby to make it worth the move.
Fortunately extension stage 1 raised the value nicely for a remortgage for most of the extension money.
