    Next door might have thought the same as you and said scrap the tank and just use the well.

    I was just wondering why the poster said this "it's not like you can pop next door for a few litres / buckets of water". I get that it would be inconvenient. I just wondered why he said it would be impossible to pop next door for water.

    If your well is contaminated then your neighbors well may very well be too so

    How does the water tank requirement affect installing a pressurised system?

    It doesn't.
    Incoming mains feeds your storage tank and kitchen tap as usual and you use the storage tank as your source to feed a pump. You can then have a combi boiler after that, or a boiler with an unvented hot water cylinder.
