im just about to buy my first house and would like opinions, advice etc
what are the pros and cons of buying a victorian/edwardian house as
oppposed to buying a new house.any views will be read with interest.

People I know are moving in to a brand new build (large house builder),
and it's bloody awful. They've got an attached garage with a stud
partition wall between that and the living area! The finish is
shockingly poor. One of the "bedrooms" is 6x6 feet. They do have
double-glazing, though. We've got sliding sash windows that rattle a
bit.

Sounds like a worst case example. I can show you 5 bed new houses that are
very solid and well made.
