This house was advertised in the Telegraph property paper yesterday, it made me laugh.

I don't think the estate agent liked it much!

This five-bedroom property, which retains fine period features, has been run in recent years as a b&b.

No doubt guests find it easy to find their way back to their temporary lodgings, with the walls being so gloriously bright!

Buyers can also enjoy an income from letting the shop that comes with the main property.

Incidentally, despite the colour, this attractive home is called The Limes.

Well it is in Essex!

How funny is that?

However despite the right up it had already sold as of first thing saturday morning, probably before the paper hit my doorstep.

But a Thank you goes to David Burr the estate agent for making me laugh.
