Important questions to ask when viewing a house (to buy)

And have a bath

I like Garden B. It's seemingly smaller but just looks more comfortable. A long garden is great if you've kids, otherwise I fear you'd never actually use most of it.

Unless you plant fruit & veg and grow your own or get chickens. 4 demijohns of cider (that's 32 pints), 3 of white wine (20 bottles), 2 of elderflower champagne (now bottled), tomatoes, garlic, onions, plums, beans, strawberries, raspberries, currants, beetroot, carrots, peas, rhubarb, courgettes, cucumbers, aubergines, cucamelons, horseradish, fennel, spinach, maize, pears, apples, grapes and 3 eggs a day from our 4 rescue chickens.
...and that's in the bottom of our garden, taking up a space of about 20 metres x 10 metres, including 2 sheds (one will soon have a still in it), a greenhouse, lawn and washing line

Mrs Scrag and I have gone through all this recently, hopefully completing beginning of Oct.

Boiler age and servicing.
Electrics age and any rewiring.
Open all windows, get a key if necessary, we had a couple of seized ones.
Check all taps.
Shared access, rights of way, footpaths. These will come up in the local searches too.
Problems with the neighbours?

As someone else said get a full survey. This will show you it in an impartial manner.

Enjoy the search and relax during the conveyance.

I was expecting a bit more discretion from my English pals

Just as well I won't be buying that one - won't be posting house candidate pictures on here next time

I would suggest not posting any photos, Google image search will likely pickup links that will give it away.
