Gutting news

Just as we were gearing up to move and I was starting planning my new garden, we find out that there may be a delay of up to 6 months before we can move in.

It does however give me more time to plan the garden and save some money to do all the work, oh and some lovely plants.

 

That's a blow Sarah, it's quite a long time to wait as well. I hope all goes well when you eventually do move. Meanwhile as you say you can carry on planning.

 

At least it is only a delay and the move is still on And yes, you could well be able to improve on your plan now you have to revisit it and you get more time to do it.
So not all bad news eh

Oh Bother, why so long?

 

We were under the impression that the lady who own's the house had died. She is alive but no longer has the mental capacity to sign the paperwork and she didn't sign the power of atourney. It's now got to go to court of protection. Whole process could take up to 6 months but hopefully will be sooner.

 

Bother.

 

Sorry to hear.
But hopefully it will be worth the wait.

 

It will I am sure be less time than that, so get planning and do not get caught on the hop

Hope it is sorted sooner rather than later

This is the garden that comes with the house

 

Its hard to judge from a single pic, but it looks to be roughly the same size and shape as my back garden. You can fit loads in there with a bit of careful thought.

 

Looks like you've got your work cut out there Sarah. At least with time and effort you will have it looking how you want it.

From previous experience you could have your house in as little as two to three months.

 

you may need to wait till spring to start planting .... in 6 months time, we will be in winter

 

That is the only picture I have at the moment from the details. It's about 20 ft wide and about 89ft long.

The bottom bit by the house that you can't really see will eventually be a patio/entertaining area. the rest is still ideas at the moment but there is already hard standing at the back so will probably increase this as there is no off street parking. Small area to right by the steps will be herb garden. The arch is coming down before it falls down. Will then try and have 2 curved borders either side of the steps with lawn behind and a small veg patch in right corner.
