Hello Everyone!

So today I have some amazing news!!!
Got a call this morning letting me know I was successful with a bid I placed on a Bungalow!!!
It's taken a total of 14 weeks of bidding but it has been worth it, It's a lovely Bungalow in an amazing area with large private front and back gardens, lots of room inside and will have a wet room fitted!
It will take a few months for it to be adapted with wet room etc but it's definitely ours!! I am over the moon with joy!

My partner is already excited for all the things he's going to do with the gardens and I'm excited that I will be able to leave my home safely(Currently live in a flat with a lot of steps).

I've already met the neighbours and they were so lovely and welcoming!
I honestly didn't think it would happen so quickly or find such an amazing Bungalow in a perfect area it is going to be truly life changing for me!

    Thank You!!!!

    I honestly didn’t think we would get an offer after only 15 weeks, we have been to see the Bungalow and it’s in a lovely area which is mainly elderly(I’m only in my 30s) lovely large private gardens at the front and back and the bungalow itself is a very generous size!
    So excited for when the adaptions are done so we can move in :)

    That's wonderful, I can hear how excited you are :)

    And how lucky to have gardens too, what sorts of plans do you both have for them?

    The back garden is going to be a nice private area with seating, fire pit, lights and a pond(most likely with Koi fish), front garden will be nice bright flowers and roses.

    Partner will be doing the work but I’ll be helping with drawing up the plans.

    How exciting @luchia! Your garden plans sound wonderful. I'm sure it'll be a lovely haven for you both, especially in the spring and summer months :) 

    We have some keen gardeners here on the community, so I'm sure they can lend you some green-fingered tips and tricks.

    All moved in!!!!
    The Bungalow is huge so it’s taken a bit of getting used to but very happy with it, the area is perfect, neighbours are so lovely and friendly, it’s been well worth all the stress of moving home!!

    Well chuffed for you, I know exactly how your feeling as we moved to our forever home last year.

    Our house is classed as adaptable living and it takes a weight of our minds for when we get older or my health gets worse.

    Enjoy your new house and I wish you many years of happiness 🏠

    Awesome @Luchia :) Having friendly neighbours is a good bonus!

    Have you got any decorations to put up to make it feel more homely?
