You honestly wouldn't want a new build, take it from someone who spent 300,000 on one and lost money when we sold. The whole house shook in strong winds, the neighbours could hear everything even tho the house was a detached and don't even get me started on the walls and the fact you couldn't hang a TV or shelf
Our new house is an ex council house and it's definitely a keeper. With all the fancy windows, rendering and brick cladding you can have done now you can make any house look like new build if that was the look you wanted
