hate to admit i do agree with you. was visiting friends in bristol this weekend who had bought a really really nice victorian mid-terrace 3 bed in montpelier. wasnt even much of a "doer-upper" and perfectly fine to live in but just loads of painful shit to sort out like drafty windows, crap wiring etc.
