As a Realtor (for over 20 years). I would say…. If something is really tearing at your heartstrings sometimes it is worth the jump. If you wait you may never find another home that matches that same feeling. So excited for you guys and best of luck in your search.

My parents were custom home builders, and developers, in the 60s and 70s in the Lower Hudson Valley of New York State. My mother always said exactly what your dad said. View a house on a rainy day. If you really like it on a dark, rainy, day you will love it when the sun is shining. I was surprised when you said that.

If it doesn’t invade their privacy too much, I would love a video with your parents talking about how they raised you and how you all have built a relationship that keeps you so close as an adult. I love the way you just hang out with them. ❤

How lovely for Roo to be near her little friend when you move. Usually if people re visit a house they are not sure about, the second viewing will sway them. You will notice things you missed the first time and you will either love it more or find it isn't for you. This is from someone in real estate. Wishing you all the best Hannah.

The first home with the lovely garden etc seemed to hold a special place in your heart…even with the fact that you might not be able to renovate any of the buildings. My husband and I always go with our gut feeling when making big decisions. Having your family close by will really be lovely especially when you do start a family. As a retired military family whose husband would be gone for 7 months at a time (and didn’t have the opportunity to have family close by when we had our children), the best advice that I can offer is to be as close as you can to family and friends. And you can never go wrong with the beautiful sleepy area of the Cotswolds. Will you keep your current home?

It takes so much time and energy buying, renovating, as well as so much money in stamp duty and solicitors fees, moving fees etc. I’d say five straight in with a larger house that you will grow into. My husband and I bought our family home whilst we were still engaged, it’s surprising how easily a larger house soon feels like home and you can fill it happily! Then once we’d got married and did some work on the house it was time to grow our family and our son came along without any major upheaval or thought of having to move again. Got for the big house I’d say 🙌🏼💗

It's a hard task you have set yourself Hannah! You said you would love a tiny cottage in a beautiful setting. You also said you wanted somewhere to possibly live long term, and that means Kenny, and potential additions to your family in the future😊 Also, that feeling of rattling around d in a bigger place changes once you have your furniture, and things around ypu. However, if a place has your heart, you should never ignore that feeling, houses talk to us. All the best to you in your search 💕

My experience of house buying has been it's so important to follow your heart and guts. The one time I chose with my head, because of a time constraint, the house never felt right no matter what changes I made to it and I was always very unhappy and unsettled there. I sold it two years later and eventually found this place which felt like home from the first moment I saw even the front of the house and has been my sanctuary ever since. 💗

I would want to be near my parents as well if my fiancée was away for a while. I would sell the house in Manchester & use that money to get what I really wanted in the Cotswolds which would be able to grow a family. Doesn’t make sense to me to keep 2 homes when you don’t have any ties to Manchester. Will enjoy house hunting with you, 🤞

Have you come across your page and was instantly gripped and inspired 😍. We purchased a Grade II listed cottage (in Devon) and honestly I would say never discount a house/cottage because it is listed. We have never had any issues so far with renovating and the planning office have been amazing. They are keen to bring older properties into the 21st century for sympathetic modern day family living. We were approved to remove a structural internal wall between the kitchen and dining room and honestly had no issues. It was a little more expensive because of the planning but that was more because of architectural fees and not so much the planning. Our cottage also had a two story extension done in early 2000s so there are possibilities. Wishing you all the luck on your search (if you've not found the one already 😄). I cannot wait to follow along ❤️ xx

I think the first house with the garden and the view. It would definitely be my choice. Such a beautiful setting. Probably would be wise to get back quickly for some more viewings on different houses just to see more options but if your heart strings are being pulled then that must not be ignored. Good luck 🏠🏠🤞

I've never bought a house, but my parents have bought lots and they always say that if it's tugging the heartstrings it is most definitely worth investigating and seriously looking at it. But if there are things that just don't work for you and aren't fixable/changeable, let it go 'cause there will always be other 'dream' houses.

The Cotswolds has to be one of my favourite places - best of luck with your move! Stroud had a wonderful vintage emporium I've been to a few times. Although the town is a little quiet in the weekdays - very busy at the weekend though. As en estate agent I would always say if you can look past the surface and really see the potential - and if that potential fits with your ideas of the future - you're on the right track.

So excited for you and Kenny! I would say house 1 or 3 from what you saw today. House 2 doesn’t seem to make sense (to me) if it wouldn’t work for you living there full time. House 1 the setting was gorgeous and house 3 even though you feel it may be to large I’m of the belief that it’s always better to have more space then you think you might need than less space. In the end you and Kenny have to go with what is best for the two of you! Thank you for taking us along on this new and exciting chapter of your life!❤

Advice - slow down. You need to go see another 8 houses (not sure why you came all that way and only saw 4 houses). Take photos and notes and than you willhave more clarity. Even is you choose a small house it is still a big investment. Do not make a decision based on only seeign 4 homes.

Are you from outside the UK? The Cotswolds has a comparatively temperate climate in terms of the UK as a whole. You don’t tend to get extreme weather here unless you’re north of, say, Cumbria and the Lake District. 😊
