Mid terrace - two bed victorian jobby. Small garden and lovely community. Not much at all on mortgage to pay - this may change if we can't pay credit cards off which are dominating our life! Hope to move in the next couple of years to Lincolnshire to cottage attatched to water mill with approx 11 acres. If we ever manage to get it renovated!.......where's my hard hat???!

Extended (by us) mid terrace to 4 bedrooms, and a biggish kitchen sitting room instead of a dining room. Reasonable garden if you like long and thin, but so stupidly designed (also by us, when we didn't know better) that there isn't much room in it for veggies.

We both work from home, so need more space if we want any sproglets anytime soon. Ideally 7 or 8 acres, with a small house we can extend, in order to fit in a library and some rugrats, although I'd happily give up a dining room to house my books (but not a kitchen sitting room!)

4 bed end terrace, fairly large garden. Just purchased a " holiday" cottage in the middle of nowhere with a small garden. It needs loads of TLC but the field next to it is available to rent. Forest behind, river 100 yards away in front, you could hear a lady bird sneeze.

Hmm, nearly there on two houses in semi-derelict village in central Portugal. Land, bread oven, compost loo!
