Buying a house, creating a home

Recently I got into my head that I want to buy a house. It’s a big decision both financially and emotionally. I started researching options, wondering whether to buy in or out of London. A lot of the research has involved a great deal of soul searching. I was tempted by beautiful, big houses we could buy outside London. But that led me to wonder if I was ready to give up my identity as a Londoner.
