This is a property a couple of doors along from us. Part of the land has been cleared for sale, the other part contains a well made brick house that has been completely overpowered by foliage. A year ago I would go past here and see a light on 24 hours in this house. Now I can’t even see the house! I worry about who lives here… in the past, have seen an old guy collecting firewood from a run down shed here while a cat watched. Now, no cats and no man. You can see here that there is an apple tree full of fruit, weeds growing everywhere. I have to suppose that the real estate agent is in contact with someone!
Three good things;
1. Picked up my knitting… After a couple of years, maybe this year, I’ll finish it!
2. A crescent moon - seen everywhere in the world - we have only one moon, Jupiter has 67!
3. Pulled out all the stops for a good poached egg including draining it on a sheet of absorbent paper! Super result!
@beryl@stevej This is the only place - at the back- where you can actually see the house! They need chainsaws and a four wheel drive to get at this house!
Such a shame, you're right to wonder though because it's been known for people to be inside for years before anyone realises. Really hope someone buys it soon and brings it back to its former glory.
It looks like a nice house with a planted garden at one time. Maybe you will get to know more when the land sells. I am useless at poached eggs, they always escape in the water!
House looks in good condition. We have some down the road which are looking really ragged (very old residents) - I think they have some support but I wish somebody would at least clean the windows - it's like Great Expectations!
@judithg I emailed the land agent inquiring about the inhabitant and they replied that 'Bill' is well and pop down with some scones as a neighbourly gesture. First of all, I don't make scones now; secondly I can't handle a chainsaw to get in to this place!
She scared the children, till they figured out she was more scared of them.
