Was wondering what kind of views everyone has from their homes.
Do you look out to a stunning shoreline?
A giant grassland?
A boring brickwall?
Our house only has views front and back. No side windows because we are mid-Terrace.
The back looks out onto our little garden which is still a dust bowl. With a six foot fence about 7 metres away. From the back door you can see the apartments where i lived 18 years ago with the ex-Husband. And where my first Cat Sox was born.
We have an alleyway that leads to the back gardens of the neighbours. And to the right of us is the end of one of the Terraces. In the Summer the sun rises right infront of us and beems into the house first thing in the morning. But in the Autumn it rises behind the houses and doesn't come round until about 10.30AM now. :bbconfused:
The front looks out to a little strip of grass that separates us from the road. There's a Bus Stop outside where a Bus arrives every 15 minutes taking you all over town. Beyond the road is a School Field and trees beyond that. From the Master Bedroom you can see the rooftop of a huge Manor House among the trees. The area was named after the Manor and it has since closed down. Looking very sorry for itself and boarded up.
Considering we are on a busy main road. And not far from the School Gates. It is surprisingly quiet round here. We have super double glazing that cuts a lot of the noise out. Only now and again do we hear the screech of brakes when a Bus Driver nearly misses a fare.
Our front Garden is only small. So the footpath is only about 10 feet away from the window. When sitting in the Lounge you can see everyone that passes by. And if the windows are open you can hear every conversation as they pass too.
