City apartment. While I love the countryside, the convenience of being in a city is just too good. Everything within walking distance.
If I could choose a hybrid answer, it would be cottage in the city.
That sounds dirty. 😆 |

The surroundings / facilities have a bearing
If the cottage is in a village with facilities, a shop, a cafe / tea room / coffee shop, good Internet signal and parking for a couple of cars, count me in
Same with the city centre, the apartment would need to have parking and an outside space - more importantly, no dodgy cladding and no dodgy leaseholder  |

"A country cottage with a wooden name plate saying Welcome to Frottage Cottage.
A wishing well and a couple of acres of land to have dogging fun.
"
Surely the sign should be cloth with wood underneath.  |

City apartment. Easy to rent out, lock up and leave. I'm dying to downsize from a big 3 bed with decent garden in the sticks...
It's a pure pain in the arse! And that's at 45, absolutely a nightmare at 75 I'd presume! |

I would not swap my current city living. I can travel around London for free. But if I am allowed a second dwelling it would be in a different country - lets say warm, good food and by the sea (Sarawak) |

Nope. Stayed on one for a weekend and whilst it was an interesting experience I absolutely would not want to live on one permanently. For a start they're called narrowboats for a reason - they're narrow! Also, whilst I'm no giant they're not very tall either - all the ducking would do my back in. Finally, the speed limit on canals is 4mph - I can walk quicker!
"Country cottage"
This would be perfect. Isolated, no noise, no traffic...maybe when I retire if I can afford it.
"City apartment (city of your choice)"
I've done this in Birmingham and London. I enjoyed it when I was in my 20s but I really wouldn't enjoy it now. I'm just too much of an antisocial old fart these days. Even somewhere like Prague wouldn't appeal to me now if I was actually going to live there. |
