I won't lie, I quite like the new house. It's almost certainly been built as cheap as shit, but the design is kinda cool, if perhaps not in keeping with its surroundings. But estates like that are ten a penny in the UK. And I would have made it an actual garden because, y'know, green space is nice.

But the blue paint job on the renovated house can fuck all the way off.

Probably absentee owners that want a no- to minimal-care landscape that won’t cost them anything to maintain or become an infrequently maintained eyesore and catch the council’s attention for fines.

Is have to see the interior of the new one because the front room looks like a waiting area
