We haven't updated our blog for ages, mostly due to not being able to make any decisions that felt right, or were actually achievable.... However, as we were hoping, fate took care of it for us and by being patient and giving ourselves time (and not wasting too much money) we came over another little property by accident....
We saw this tiny little house for sale on the internet in an area we both really like, and which is also very popular with holiday makers and surfers. As the price was in our range, we did not have high hopes for the place, it was too good to be true. BUT when we got there it was exactly what we had been looking for. It is tiny (i.e. doable), it has 4 walls and a roof (i.e. no major construction work needed), it has an outdoor space, which again is tiny (i.e. increases rental/onward sales potential, and is manageable!), it is only 1 km from the beach (i.e. in the village close to shops and cafes, but close enough to cycle to the beach!). Well, the main factors for us was of course the price, but also the fact that we could start work straight away.
The purchase went through while we were visited by Glenn's lovely sister and husband, which was great, as it gave us a bit of a holiday too before the work was to commence!
