Facade

Spent a marathon day searching for a property in France.. This was the best with a massive garden front and back including many fruit trees and two streams... Seems perfect but it was all a front, a pretentious falsehood. Inside, the guts of the house had been destroyed and ripped out with few if any original features left in tact. The staircase relocated to a stupid position.. If only they had stuck to the original scheme.. Such a crying shame.. But at least we know what we don't want.
