Mommy Bear Posted January 16, 2011 Report Share Posted January 16, 2011 Well, here we are, a year on and ready to give notice on our rented cottage BECAUSE WE ARE BUYING A HOUSE!!!!!!! Its near Tiverton which is so convenient for so many places - five miles from bottom of M5 and an 45mins/1hr to either coast, half an hour from Exeter. You know how when you're looking for something and you just know when you find it? Its one of those (Do I still have to upload pics to the web to put them on here??) Three big bedrooms master ensuite, and one small (DB's Den) Family Bathroom, Huuuuuuuge 16'x16' breakfast/dining kitchen with electric Aga (not too sure about that - seems like just a fancy electric cooker to me) and underfloor heating. Sitting room with log burning stove; music room ! (MB's Den). Utility, and a small Office which I think we shall use for coats and boots and stuff. Huge double garage with electric doors and big habitable studio over. We turned down the 8 seater hot tub but fell in love with the exercise pool. Wat dat you say? Its a 3mx2m pool with a electric current NO thats daft -its has an electric motor which creates a current for you to swim against. and it sits in a wooden chalet type building at the top of the garden. No I'd never heard of them either. It seems the current owners are in business selling - guess what - hot tubs and exercise pools Heaven. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spins4me Posted January 16, 2011 Report Share Posted January 16, 2011 (edited) OMG!! I'm saying this without a hint of shame - I AM GREEN WITH ENVY. It looks gorgeous. However I'm very slightly embarrassed as I read the title as "I am buying a HORSE." Edited January 16, 2011 by Spins4me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
