The interpretation of the dubious scare-science has already been nicely covered; my tuppeny-worth advice is that if you are worried about the pylons then so might others be come the day you might want to sell up which would detract from the perceived value of your property, making it harder to sell or sell for less than its truer value. Before you buy it you have a choice so consider the investment risk carefully before deciding to buy it and factor it in.
If you cannot see yourself ever stopping worrying about the pylons then Westward 10 (at #12) is spot in my view. And, since you declare finding it difficult to understand the sciences then you may not be readily convinced by scientific arguments about the safety of being in proximity to them and remain a sceptic.
My mother-in-law is such a sceptic and is convinced they (alternating electro-magnetic fields) cause harm and I am resigned to the fact nothing anyone or I says will alter her view: she cannot explain how and why they are harmful and is biased in citing reports to support her, believing instead that the electricity industry is colluding to hide something. When I first started going out with my wife, I found that in her mother's home, each appliance and wiring accessory had affixed to it a match-box sized piece of paper with the circuit diagram of 'T' or 'Pi' filter network (see https: LC Low Pass Filter Circuit :: Radio-Electronics.Com - http://www.radio-electronics.com/info/rf-technology-design/rf-filters/simple-lc-lowpass-filter-design.php). I humour her to this day.
