The Househunt: saga continues
This morning I had an appointment with Cédric and his Subaru Impreza. He was quite imprezza'ed when I told him that some British people nickname the cars "Scoubidous".
Anyway, I had told him I didn't like the look of this house, so he arranged for us to go and look more closely.
The house is OK. 4 bedrooms, which means I wouldn't have to work in the garage. Nice garden. Nice big terrace with plastic roof thingy and brick built barbecue (see the little chimney thing)
The house is priced well, but it hasn't sold because: 1) it's on an estate of houses that all look just the same 2) it's decorated in a very outmoded style. e.g. dark wood kitchen with dark tiles and dark paint. All glosswork painted in brownish colours. Blue bathroom suite with blue tiles, blue wallpaper and blue paintwork. But a huge drum of magnolia and a lot of white gloss would make a huge difference. This could be a good family house. Also good for having lots of people on the terrace. But it is in Villenave d'Ornon, so no nearer schools, trams or university. However, it is very near Villenave's new Olympic size swimming pool!
