14 November - Convenient for the station
The end house in Florence Road, Belvedere was demolished to make way for
Crossrail’s
box of electrical tricks but the house next door was shored up and put on the
market. (For Sale sign Photo 1.)
One of Balfour Beatty’s men told me how much was being asked for it. I forget
what the price was but I remember it was more than I thought my own house would
fetch and when I mentioned it to neighbours the response was “ridiculous”.
However it is undoubtedly ideally placed for any deaf commuter and in recent
weeks what might be an estate agent (Photo 2) has been seen taking an interest and now
the house appears to be occupied.
