LOL well it is render or some not too pretty 1970's bricks in large parts of the house. Must admit given the choice I would prefer an old Georgian or Victorian brick build house and some of the modern rendered houses lack soul (we did look at some houses like this before buying current one but after 18 months of looking we made some compromises). However, in any case a lot of more modern brick build house are not particularly attractive if not downright ugly and rendering if done nicely with right detailing and right windows, guttering, barge boards, etc, can look quite good.
Early days to worry about details on the rendering (just trying to figure out window issues for now) but points taken. Think we will probably end up keeping some kind of brick plinth as we have some very old nice looking bricks on barn, stable and garden walls or possible weatherboarded plinth (just like the old days to protect against cows kicking the walls!)
