Default North or North-East?

g'day deebs,

just as a casual observer and one who looks at aspects when buying
homes, for us down under the northern around to eastern aspects are
ideal as they give us good sun (providing no obstacles like taller
buildings or trees), but without winter sun the vege's don't grow.

but if you aren't into vege's then as another poster said choose your
plants wisely.

having said that then for you up there the southern to eastern aspects
would be the ideal, not only for the garden but for the home as well
to get that suns warmth into the home over winter.

so if those 2 aspects you mention are the only options then i'd
suggest the north east aspect sounds the better.

Have you thought to check the soil in both Gardens, often houses on an
end can have the soil more compacted and the builders just spread a
few inches of topsoil over the site.
