House Hunting?

Many young workers may be seeking a new house to settle down in, but we can safely imagine the following is way out of their expectations. A London mansion hidden away like a countryside cottage has been put up for sale for a record-breaking £105 million - 640 times the average house price in the UK. Park House has been described as the finest home to come onto the market in the capital in the past 25 years. 'Despite being in South Kensington in the city's centre it sits in more than half an acre of land and is out of sight from  any roads or cars. The home, described as being secluded like a private estate, has six bedrooms, five bathrooms and seven reception rooms, including an incredible 48-foot drawing room.' (Daily Mail, 9th September) Five bathrooms? The owning class of course do a lot more boozing than the workers hence the need for the additional toilet facilities. RD
