I'd move to Dorset to be closer to my family and this little one attached.

I would like to move to a smaller bungalow with a smaller garden as the one I am in is far too much for me to manage especially as my husband needs looking after as well.

Would like to downsize as my sons are grown up and the house is so hard to keep clean on my own.

My goodness, Geordienanaannie how heartless of the buyers to demand such a thing.
And lazy solicitor made things even worse

I do hope things begin to look brighter for you in 2021 (or even sooner!)

We were due to move during the lock down but as solicitors were working restricted hours from home our planned move fell apart when it was discovered at the last minute that the solicitors for the property we were hoping to buy had not done any of the work necessary and our buyers demanded we move out almost immediately with no where to go, and no where available to rent in the area! We ended up having to pull out of the chain. Very very stressful and thousands of pounds out of pocket. A nightmare to add to the Covid19 nightmare. Roll on 2021

I would love to downsize our home to something with a smaller garden, less financial outgoings, warm and in good decorative order. A two bed bungalow would be ideal or even a two bed static home as long as there was outside space for a couple of garden chairs and a few pots. I am finding our large garden more and more difficult to maintain and it would break my heart to see it become overgrown gardens as we get older.

I’d love To move into a bungalow, with a small manageable garden. We have have been in our current home for 30 years the garden is on a slope so difficult for me to mow the grass. To live near the sea would be wonderful.

moving home with Willerby Bespoke

Only if they started building heritage-style thatched cottages.

I would be encouraged to move home if all the following were satisfied:
Fairly quiet area established so that buildings that are already there are all there will be.
Near a small market town.
Good transport links.
Reasonable sized garden to cultivate and be peaceful in.
Have input into the home so that it reflects me and feeds my soul.

I love my house and the area where I live, but could see it becoming too much for me. At that point, I think I'd look for a bungalow rather than a flat so I still have some privacy and control

We were born and bred in London, and then we just wanted to live by a beach. So we've moved to the Isle of wight - beaches all around and a slower pace of life. And we're hugely popular for visitors, always one of our 4 children and grandchildren here. We love it.

We would love to move to a nice home that isn't overlooked by other neighbours. We find properties are getting too expensive for us on our pension, as well as the added costs of moving... it looks like we will not be going anywhere anytime soon.

We've moved into a 3 generation household with daughter, son in law and grandsons of 5 and 8. We now have a bigger house, a garden and 4 adults to share childcare/old fogies care

We would love to move to a bungalow. We had a big detached house, and after the family married and moved into their own homes, we decided to downsize and be near to the shops and main road. Talk about be careful what you wish for! We have moved into a three bed semi detached house. Yes near to the shops, yes near to the main road and several bus routes. But yes, we are situated between two DIY enthusiasts, one on each side. So each day is filled with a symphony of banging, sawing, plane-ing drilling. Four houses within two doors and opposite have had extensions built, houses reroofed. Plus after only living here for three years, we both now are finding the stairs so difficult. So now we are saving up to move again, to pay the estate agents, surveyer, solicitor, removal people. Be very sure of your new property before you move.

My husband died and I moved to be near the children who helped improve the new house, a former council house in a nice position.
After my 200 year old house in Oxfordshire, I found the rooms small apart from the kitchen dining area which had been extended, The house itself, as a building, was spacious with a large patio and garden and utility room and I settled there until I had to move after five years to help my daughter

When I retire, I have a huge yearning to live near the sea or at least near water of some sort. I am terrified of the sea and would never go in it but it is beautiful to watch. In the past I moved to end up in a gorgeous Victorian cottage in a village and later with children moved to a more modern place in the same village to have same lifestyle but large garden. Then I moved into a big town but now yearn for a small cottage again when I was at my happiest.

I’d love to move if I could find a bungalow I could afford within easy reach of my family not easy to do in the suburbs of London. I really can’t face buying an apartment with no private garden.

for peasce and quiet and fresher air . i want to move to worthing west sussex and find a council transfer is really hard... but having another go right now..

We have recently just moved into our first home and we love it , we would only move now when we retire to downsize and live by the sea if we can

We were about to retire from a busy B&B business to downsize and had put it up for sale when Covid forced us to close. Since then we have realised that we love what we have created here. We have removed it from sale and are now concentrating on turning the whole property into our forever home having realised that the money isn’t as important as our happiness and comfort in retirement. The little Welsh town that we live in has a good community spirit and all the features and amenities that we would need to pay a fortune for if we moved nearer to our children in England.

We downsized three years ago, from an old characterful house in the Montagne Noire, France. (I still miss it!) We arrived in the UK in a blizzard. We chose a modern apartment, very close to the town centre of a charming market town: it was important to be able to walk into town as we could in France. However, we are now so utterly fed up with the dreadful congestion whenever we visit family, that we (despite my famous last words - "I am never moving again") hope to move next month. The Covid pandemic has held, us packed and ready to move, since Christmas. I most definitely am not going to move again, it took us ages to find a vibrant, charming town in our chosen district that we liked, most towns now, sadly seem run down and dreary. Anyway, we are up sizing slightly, location being our number one priority.

To move to a nicer house

We have moved so many times since we have been together. I couldn't count the number of times. We started out in London, went to Kent, then to Jamaica, then to the Midlands, then to the South, now we are off to Dorset. There were several houses / homes in each area. My friends complain that I ruin their address books with crossings out.
Mr LullyDully was an RAF child so he finds it hard to settle. He moved throughout his childhood until he went to boarding school. I happily stayed in one house from birth but have been on the move since I went to college at 18.

I am ready to stay put now and this new house is supposed to be the ' dotage house '. We shall see.

I finally did move after 36 years at the same address in London! I've come back to my roots in Scotland & live in a lovely village just outside Edinburgh. I had decided that I didn't want to spend my retirement in what has become a ridiculously overcrowded city!
What a great decision it turned out to be! I love it here & although I do miss my daughter, who stayed in London, I get the best of both worlds, as I can go & visit her regularly ( well once this pesky virus is gone).
It's peaceful, and I have lovely neighbours all around me too.
I live five minutes away from my sister so we see each other most days, plus I live only ten minutes away from a small beach & even managed a swim in the sea yesterday evening!

I would have liked to move to Austria to access more efficient healthcare, to be able to move freely within EU countries and visit friends and family in Germany, Poland, Lithuania, Ukraine and Russia.
