Seen a property on the outskirts of Boston. Just what i've been looking for, semi detached, double garage, decent off road parking, decent garden, conservatory, nice road,etc.

Only 2/3 roads away are farmers fields to the east.

Now i know that it might be described as a 'deprived area' or at least the town. But if you are rarely going to visit there - what does it matter ? Theres always supermarkets on the outskirts of towns as well as DIY/furniture stores,etc in retail parks.

I'm not looking for work so the economic part of it doesn't bother me. I want a place less built up and busy than the place i currently live (south coast).

I'd be selling a 2 bed terraced house buying something bigger with features i want, bagging 80 odd K in the process.

Does seem to be a divide on whether its actually in East Anglia or East Midlands ?!

Thank you for that quick and detailed reply thumbup

I had been looking around Norfolk/Suffolk for that 'not built up/countryside' feel and prices were already looking good.
I'm amazed that they seem to be even better where you are !!

Definitely want to be able to get away quickly and drive around with fields/countryside either side of me.

Been doing a little more research and some people recommend places like Spalding and Bourne.
