Easy to say. But in many Victorian areas detached houses are either rare
or extremely expensive. And the alternative newer house - although
possibly better sound insulated - is likely to be very much smaller.

I would go further and say that it's not just victorian areas where
detached houses are rare or prohibitively expensive.

Yes, it's a long while since I updated the website, but the place hasn't
changed that much :-)

Probably counts as Victorian though as most of the development in this
particular area happened between 1890 and 1920.

Hwyl!
