A Georgian Gem…!

I absolutely adore my home at ‘Hill House’, but similar to a politician in charge of Family Values, I have to confess to a wondering and roving eye on the odd occasion…

I tell my husband that at least my addiction is limited to lusting after houses on-line rather than attempting to place offers on houses that I have no intention of buying, with money that I haven’t got…and really, who but the most hardened soul could resist this particular little bit of eye candy below…

..And just as attractive a view from the back – one should always check one’s rear view in the mirror before an appointment, don’t you think? And this little lady certainly has nothing to worry about from those viewing her from behind…she’s absolutely perfectly formed…and unlike myself – hasn’t lost an ounce of style with age!

…But aren’t we brought up to believe that it’s what’s on the inside that counts?

…she doesn’t disappoint does she…

…and what about the bits and bobs that are often overlooked…

…once again – perfectly groomed and in tip top condition…

…Yes, the ‘Old Gal’ has certainly aged with style and elegance…the perfect lady methinks…

I’ve actually spotted this house before in one of my much loved and well thumbed books, ‘Perfect English’ by Ros Byam Shaw, whose ‘Perfect English’ series of interiors books I absolutely adore! It has such a charming, much loved and ‘lived in’ country look doesn’t it?

So anyone with a couple million to ‘spare’ – (start by checking behind the cushions on your sofa) – and who fancies moving up to Norfolk to become a ‘relative’ neighbour to me – (Okay – this house is on the posher bit of Norfolk and I promise to only pop in for coffee once a day!), this property is on the market with Bedfords estate agents.

Enjoy!
