Today at PropertyQuoteDirect we are talking dream property! The news has recently been filled with property prices going up, down and sideways, but mostly down, and so today, in order to help stem the January blues, and to try to find some respite from the poor state of the economy, we have been thinking about some of the best property locations, and what would make the perfect dream property.
Location Matters!
Now in terms of location here in the UK, we decided the number one spot is somewhere in the countryside, away from the hustle and bustle of London, but not too far from it! Our perfect pad would be somewhere rural but with great transport links as well. After all you wouldn’t want to be unable to get into the centre of town, or be unable to quickly pop down the shops would you?
It would also be important for the property to be located near schools and in areas of low to nonexistent crime. This is something that will inevitably help when acquiring landlord insurance! In short, the outskirts of a beautiful little village with a friendly atmosphere, that wasn’t too far from the UK capital, would be a perfect location.
Now the Property
So what about the property itself? Well, this is a tricky one. Of course a lot of people would go straight for the large mansion, whereas others would prefer a smaller, prettier cottage for example. My own personal preference would be somewhere in the middle. Not too big, but big enough to house an average family.
The property would also be surrounded by beautiful scenery and greenery. Ivy would cover part of the front of the house and the driveway would be scattered with gravel. The property would also have its own private gates, and a private garage.
Upon entering the property you would be greeted with real wooden finishes and some grand art work on the walls. The main reception area would also be one of the top attractions within the house – a place to mingle perhaps?
The garden would be large enough for a decent number of people to get involved with a game of football and there would also be a couple of swings hanging in the corner.
At this point it is inevitable that people will be disagreeing with me, so we ask the question: what would your perfect property look like?
Why don’t you too start dreaming up your ideal home? It’s a lot of fun, and a good distraction from the harsh reality of our current economy. Feel free to let us know what you come up with!
