This week, we’re in Bracknell Welcome back to What I Own – Metro’s property series where we speak to homeowners about getting on the ladder. Last week, for What I Rent – Metro’s tenant diary series that explores what renting is like in the UK and further afield, we visited co-workers Niamh Finn and Abbie Morris at their two-bedroom flat in Harlesden, North West London. The pair met whilst working for a removal company, and decided to move in together for a fresh start away from family.
We knew we wanted to stay in this area but the search obviously hinged on what was affordable for us. We enquired at the beginning of April and reserved our property at the end of April, exchanging contracts in June. The pair found their property on Rightmove How have you made the property feel like home? We made it feel like home by adding our own furniture and our own stamp on the property with decor. We have kept the décor fairly neutral by adding hints of navy, grey and silver.
