The House at Pooh Corner is for sale! If I had the wherewithal, I'd so live here (actually, this is a total dream house for me--forest, streams, a little writing cottage, adorable English village...yes, please):
Christopher Robin Milne, the son of Winnie the Pooh creator A.A. Milne, grew up in this quaint brick manse in the English countryside. Christopher Robin inspired the young boy of the same name in Milne's iconic children's stories and, so too did the bucolic setting of the family home serve as the backdrop. Known as Cotchford Farm, and on the market for the first time in more than 40 years, the Grade II listed estate spans 9.5 acres of lawns, forest, and streams. The six-bedroom main house, the quintessential English country house if there ever was one, is listed for $3.22M. There's more to the Milne house than just Pooh, as it was also later owned by Brian Jones of the Rolling Stones, who reportedly died on the property.
It's beautiful. Go HERE (Curbed.com) to see more pictures and drool a bit more.
That. Place. Looks. AWESOME. I mean, seriously. Don't you feel like if you lived there you'd NEVER HAVE WRITER'S BLOCK AGAIN? :)
ReplyDeleteOMG yes! I mean, what excuse could you possibly have?
DeleteI want to live there! If we split the cost, it's 'only' just over a million and a half each!! :)
ReplyDeleteSounds like a plan to me. Better start saving our pennies!
