I keep telling her how ITTY BITTY our house is, so I'm hoping she'll start to think it's like a closet-sized flat and will be impressed that it's not XD We don't even have age or character to impress upon--it's an 80s build :P (Also, I don't think she's be impressed by age anyway. When I lived in the States, I bought a well-cared for 40 year old house and her immediate response was "it's too old. You need to sell it and buy a newer house.")
My partner is all credit for this excellent investment. He bought it a long, long before he and I were together, and has let it out over the years while his career took him other places and the gentrification did it's work. The hope is to eventually sell it and use the money to buy a really nice place in a far less overheated market in the UK. But... we'll see given the instability that is Britain right now >_< At least we have an affordable place to live if it all crashes.
