Hi, my family are deciding which home to purchase between those two. And we are hesitated which one to choose. Can anyone advice
both is about same price and similar location.

property 1) almost all window facing north ( no direct Sun light , but is about 1000 square feet and feel about 30% bigger than property 2

property 2) all window facing south, direct Sun light all day, but is about 800 square feet and feel 30% smaller compare to propoerty 1.

which one would you choose if you are facing those two decisions.

Windows facing North is always the choice. I am in the Phoenix area, called the Valley Of The Sun for a good reason. A lot of houses have no windows on the South side and that is for a reason.

You didn't say where you live but unless it's the far north, I would pick house #1. 200 extra SF is nice too.....

If there is not enough sunlight down the road and it bothers you, you can always add a window on the front, or even easier, put in a Solatube in a central location.
