Our new home...in a while...

Another piece of good news this week was that we have exchanged on the house in Lyndhurst! We have a cash buyer who is looking to run it as a holiday rental and we should complete once our tenants have left at the end of May.

Also we have had our offer accepted on a house just a few doors down on Maki Road. This was about the second house we saw and we couldn't believe we could find such a great house so quickly...so we looked over the last few months at loads of others and I have to say we couldn't beat it for location, looks, layout or feel, plus it means that Shaun gets to walk to work and we don't have to buy a second car.

Its definately a house for entertaining as there is a deck around 2 sides with room for eating out, hammocks, sun loungers, we have a bar (!) downstairs which lends out into the back garden and the pation which is partially covered to you can BBQ in the unusual event of rain, or we have heard that its known to BBQ your Christmas turkey!

Upstairs is the lounge/dining room which opens onto the main deck, kitchen, bathroom, guest bedroom, master bedroom with ensuite, balcony and a jaccuzi tub in the bedroom!

Downstairs we have another bedroom, a second lounge with a fire place, another bathroom, bar (!) and office - 2500sq in all, so plenty of room for visitors!

Outside there is a double garage/workshop and even a space to put Matilda....

Moving in date is the 16th June! Fingers are going to stay permenately crossed until then!
