Interested to get some opinions on the following hypothetical situation from this sub:
Given the choice between 2 new build house types in the same estate which would you choose: A 110sq.m 2 storey 3-bed semi-d or a 134sq.m 3 storey 3-bed mid-terrace?
Some things to consider:
- The price difference is about 25k (semi-d is more expensive)
- Semi-d includes 2 parking spaces on drive. Mid-terrace has shared communal parking.
- Semi-d has side access to rear, mid-terrace has no external access to rear.
- Mid-terrace includes a (small) utility room, semi-d does not.
- Mid-terrace has 2 en-suite rooms and a main bathroom. Semi-d has 1 en-suite room and a main bathroom.
- Mid-terrace master bedroom includes a (small) walk-in closet. Semi-d does not.
- Semi-d has marginally bigger garden than mid-terrace.
My preference would lean towards the mid-terrace because of the price, slightly larger space and room layout. My only concerns would be around parking, garden access and whether the semi-d would retain or gain more value than the mid-terrace.
What would you choose in this situation?
