It\u2019s funny what people ask on viewings, we\u2019ve had all sorts from the traditional \u2018how are the neighbours?\u2019 to \u2018will you be leaving the lightbulbs in the extractor hood\u2019?<\/p>\n<p>Yes, but we\u2019ll be taking the coving with us.<\/p>\n<p>Really?<\/p>\n<p>Anyway that\u2019s the good news. The bad news is that the person currently residing in the house of our dreams has not yet decided to put it on the market. Which house and where that may be has yet to be ascertained, but we\u2019re trying to remain very philosophical and Kirstie Allsopp about it.<\/p>\n<p>We did actually see a <a title=\"The lovely little pile\" href=\"http:\/\/www.rightmove.co.uk\/property-for-sale\/property-32851211.html?premiumA=true\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">lovely little pile<\/a> just a stone\u2019s throw from the Middleton\u2019s who we most certainly would be inviting round for tea (I hear they put on a lovely do). However on closer inspection it did need a lot of work and money throwing at it, and that is even before we come to the acro prop holding up the roof. It breaks my heart though to think what could have become of the alfresco bread oven&#8230;.<\/p>\n<p>So for now we are sitting tight, grateful to our buyers that they will hang on until January, and continue to build a photographic memory of the offerings on RightMove. In the meantime if you hear of anywhere celubrious in West Berkshire with a kitchen-diner, grazing for a modest alpacca herd and the potential for fibre to the cabinet (you have to throw them the odd bone every now and then) please do get in touch! We\u2019d be most grateful.\t\t<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>That be it then \u2013 \u2018The Palace\u2019 (as featured) has been sold.
