Triumph and Disaster
What a few days of triumph and disaster.A lovely house, now passed its best, sparsely furnished badly with second hand furniture that is often horrifically out of period. It became quite homely after the shock wore off. It was warm and dry.The disaster was the cleaners, who had not changed the sheets from the last visitors, and although they had given a a token clean and hoovered the carpets, they had failed to give a deep clean for a long time. There were sweet papers behind a settee, a crust of (mouldy) bread in a bedroom cupboard, greasy pots in the kitchen. The windows remained dirty and cobwebby, did not appear to have been cleaned for at least 6 months.Sykes did their best by getting the cleaners back twice in day 1 of our stay, with clean sheets and a quick clean up, but the result was a feeling that it did not add up to the sales details, or the Sykes standards.. So the cleaners and the gardener needs attention by the owners.And then there is the garden - potentially wonderful. But although the main lawns were mown, the rest of the garden had gone to weeds. It needed a couple of days work to even begin to get it in order.The fabric of the building itself is being damaged by climbers and ivy that is even obstructing some of the windows, let alone damaging the brickwork. I gather the property is for sale, and it is the sort of house we would love to live in. But it needs a lot of TLC.
