| Comment | Seconding this. I bought a bigger than average 1 bed for around 130k which needed a quite a bit of work done in a great location and it was the best decision I could have made in terms of quality of life and having lots of amenities nearby. I feel safe walking around alone at any time, people are genuinely friendly and there is a nice sense of community. Losing a bedroom is a small price to pay for living in that sort of environment, and I just bought a decent sofa bed for when I occasionally have guests. I could have bought a 3 bed house elsewhere for the same amount but it would not have been the right decision. |
