What an amazing house! Since I once lived in Germany (for many years)

I kind of felt it would be a bit like living in a museam - lots of
"show" but not quite "home". Still they looked prety pleased with it -
and the nice plot of land they had made all the difference to it as well.

The nice plot of land made all the difference. You wouldn't want to live in a
house like that where passersby could look in.

Why on earth not?!!!! Look around and see how many houses have no net
curtains! I do not, for one. Go to Holland, where they simply don't
care who looks in while they are sitting around having their tea. And
because anyone can stare, everyone loses interest after the first few
minutes. Net curtains = tiny minds!
