woolybanana Posted June 1, 2015 Share Posted June 1, 2015 I have now put my house on Greencres and would be grateful if some of you knowledgable people could peep at the ad to suggest any improvements.The ad is only in English at the moment as I think it is a perfect second home from a British chap/esse.Thank you in advance.http://www.green-acres.com/en/properties/68580.htm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gardengirl Posted June 1, 2015 Share Posted June 1, 2015 I haven't any suggestions, Wooly, but I'm not too good at that sort of thing. However, I think your house looks absolutely lovely, so light and airy and I love the garden too. Interesting to have an upside- down house.If I was in the market for a house in that area, I'd buy it! Good luck! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
woolybanana Posted June 1, 2015 Author Share Posted June 1, 2015 Thank you gg. Just hope someone wants to buy it.The main problem so far has been to keep the doggies out of the picture; they are such show offs they just wanna be in the foto. Finally I bribed them to be eleswhere with nice fresh beef bones. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

suein56 Posted June 1, 2015 Share Posted June 1, 2015 [quote user="woolybanana"]Guess what, I have just had a message oif interest from Dr ******* in NIgeria. Hmmmmm[/quote]Hmmm is about right ... I think I would be a tad careful with that one [:)].Edit : I have just looked at your photo-spread with Greenacres and can only say that it is a lovely house. Beautifully styled and bang up to date where necessary. Is that a pterodactyl fossil or a stork skeleton on your wall ?You do need to market it to a wider-than-UK audience though ... as it will have wide appeal, in my humble opinion.Sue Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
woolybanana Posted June 1, 2015 Author Share Posted June 1, 2015 Thank you, Sue, yes I will widen the ad range slowly and yes it is a non-flying pteradactyl that I shot on safari in a part of Birmingham I can't mention, years and years ago.

suein56 Posted June 1, 2015 Share Posted June 1, 2015 My other half, the one who used to sell fossils in some dim and distant part of his past, has looked over my shoulder and said that pterodactyl didn't exist as such. He said I should have said 'Pterodactylus' (if I heard him right ) belonging to the pterosaur species, but that is beside the point. It's you shooting one ... I just didn't realise that you were quite that old [:)] !!Sue Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NormanH Posted June 3, 2015 Share Posted June 3, 2015 A dream house to someone who has never had more than 25k to spend...Really lovely and seems cheap but is that because there are only 2 bedrooms? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
woolybanana Posted June 4, 2015 Author Share Posted June 4, 2015 It is a sweet little house, Norman, a bit different from the norm, the kind of place I like.The advantage of two bedrooms is that you cant have too many visitors at once, The second bedroom is vast (8.80 metres by 3.20) and would make a sort of holiday studio for your friends who wanna be independent, which was the layout when I bought it.The price is about right for the area, I think Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
idun Posted June 4, 2015 Share Posted June 4, 2015 Now that was a good reminder, we have a bedroom as big as that and I am going to convert it into two rooms, must call the building regs people.Reason being that no one uses the snooker table in it anymore and it is hard to keep half warm in winter.

nectarine Posted June 22, 2015 Share Posted June 22, 2015 Woolly, lovely house but may I make some comments that I hope you find constructive?Firstly, switch on some lights ... the photos show the rooms to be quite dark. While we appreciate the benefits of shade, newbie owneres want light and sun everywhere. That was my first impression on the photos and may be that of others.You might have to re-shoot each room at different times of the day, when the light falls upon it, rather than at the same time. But a light room is far more attractive.Also, you are on the edge of the village ... how many minutes' walk to the bar, to the restaurant? I'd include that in.Hope you find this advice useful.
