Howard in reply to @leggy_blonde

I can never understand why they want to pay more for them then doing up a nice stone place in a better location

Suspect it is perceived risk vs. reward + learning about and doing all that shit is not their priority at that time.

Yeah, plus running modern services through thick stone walls is not fun or cheap, and if it's in the historic part of the town/village then there'll be no parking and probably a faff to drive up to as well. My in laws old place and the restored houses their friends lived in were very pretty but their newer place (60s or 70s not new build) is undoubtably easier to maintain and live in.

I looked at a stone place with no car access. You'd need an ebike to get up the hill. Appeals to me.
