Hi all.
Nearly 40, divorced, and about to be able to get on the property ladder again.
Im just wondering what sort of thing to go for though.
I could just go for a 'nice' traditional house. Or I could try and get something which can be more of a bachelor pad / man cave with the hope of having some parties etc and making the 2nd half of my life more fun.
Problem is I:
a) feel a bit silly and immature for thinking this way at nearly 40.
b) dont really know what a bachelor pad would look like if i was to try and build/buy one.
c) worried I could go to all this trouble and find I struggle to get people over to enjoy it with me.
My initial thoughts are id need a house with at least two living rooms, so that one can be a man cave / cinema / tech room and one can be more traditional. I would have liked a proper basement but houses with these are very rare where I live.
Im reasonable at DIY having installed my own kitchens and bathrooms in the past, so would be able to modernise a house fairly well over a period of time whilst living in it.
Id appreciate any ideas you all have on the subject.
Thanks.
