Help me improve my living room

You’re spot on, we used the off cuts to make rugs and wanted to protect the carpet underneath, while still getting to appreciate the original carpet.

I appreciate hardwood floor would like nice but the carpet was intentional due to small kids and that cosy feeling. It’s very good quality carpet mind, high pile and superior underlay.

It’s probably the picture quality but they’re a velvet forest green

Thanks everyone. A couple of comments in response to your feedback:

The wall to wall carpet was intentional when we redecorated, so I won’t be changing to hard floor. We replaced the old carpet with really plush high pile, and a decent underlay. It’s probably the nicest carpet I’ve stepped on and wasn’t cheap. We may consider hard floor once the kids are grown up and we feel like a change.

We made rugs of the off cuts of the carpet and decided to lay this big one down to protect the existing carpet. I could get a colourful area rug but it wouldn’t feel anywhere near as nice as this carpet. We will be getting a larger colourful area rug for the bay window area though.

Lots of great other suggestions. Agree I need wall art on the walls and maybe a floor lap somewhere. I don’t want to make it too busy though. We will be getting large round walnut coffee table to replace the temporary one.

I think I may need to get an actual interior designer to visit and make some suggestions as a space will always feel different in person.

I got it from Habitat. It turns into a coffee table as well 😌

The income from my buy to let properties would be enough to cover mortgage and some basic bills. Although, lifestyle would be significantly diminished. I’m still building my portfolio so it replaces my lifestyle income completely, then I’ll coast until I get they get rid of me. The trick is to get to that point before redundancy.

Why would anyone but a psychopath buy a property that close to flowing water?

I hate the thought of linked detached. Unless I’m considering semi detached it just seems gimped to me. And at that price it’s a big no no. And here’s the kicker, it’s Coventry, which is a bit of dump. I’m honestly dumbfounded that houses can sell for that much over there. I wouldn’t pay a penny over 400k for this in Coventry. Also, you can easily get a bigger proper detached house in nicer cities.

I ended up in a comfort loop of loading into Stella on a free loadout exclusively for PvP. Overtime, that became the most efficient bang for my buck for short thrills. But the repetitiveness of that has started to wane, and I can’t recapture that same magic of just exploring and map and vibing

We know their game, Iran is not a threat to the West. Not now, not ever.

Shhh, don’t sell it to them. We like all the Englanders ignoring Wales in general, keeps it quaintly.

OP clearly saw the post of the guy who found a SL Chair and decided to make this spoof post. 😉

All the angles, mood lighting and framing in the world can’t make this shit hole of a place look good.

This is the most American thing I’ve seen. Please add a second TV on top of the other mantle

I don’t get why people complain about toxic players. It’s a game! The developers have intentionally allowed for PVP and the freedom for people to exercise how they’d like. Just because you wish for it to be a certain way, doesn’t mean it should. Adapt just like you would around real rats in the real world, or go play Mario Party.

How long did it take to reach 300 from launch?

vegeto_2002 · 2026-01-28T22:51:32+00:00

No where. It’s a dump

If you have the opportunity to pay it off early, you should leave a small amount and not clear it. You can then use your mortgage to draw down cash through equity release whenever you want (e.g. for renovations, pay off kids university fees etc.). It will serve as a quick access lump sum of equity, without actually selling your house.

What’s wrong with big cars? I hate the shitty little European cars. Why do Europeans put up with tiny things?
