One house to rule them all... - The Barrow-Downs Discussion Forum

That is one lovely house

When I first heard that it had came up for sale I thought it would be a lot smaller, but that is rather large. I love the study though, it looks so spacious, and the grounds look wonderful.

I wish they had more pictures.

But I would buy it, it would give me a reason to move to England

So after I rob a few banks/win the lottery/ sell some vital organs/brainwash Bill Gates into becoming my "benefactor", I shall have this house and fill it with pretty pretty Elf-like boys.

Awwwwwwwwwww. If someone from the Downs buys it I'm coming to visit. And if you're stingy, I'll give you 100 dollars to sit in the study for an hour.

I have placed the study at my desktop, for the look of it

That's an excellent idea. I did the same. Now when I write I can pretend that I'm seated in a spacious, beautiful study with a lovely view, rather than a corner of the living room near the front door.

P.S. As soon as I purchase the house, there will be a biiiiiiggg party announcement.

What a thrill it would be to trash the house of grumpy old man, J.R.R. Tolkien for any true Tolkien fan.

To me the best part is the fireplace. Now that I've seen it right there in the study, I can't imagine LotR being written without a fire crackling on the hearth. Ubercool.
