Extreme bookcase envy

Posted on Mon, 19 Feb 2024 by KiM

I am absolutely head over heels in love with this home (a three-bedroom Grade II-listed terrace house of Georgian architecture in Bristol’s Cotham and Redland Conservation Area, with an 18th-century façade, and spans 2,000 sq ft over five storeys). I cannot imagine having this much book storage. I cannot imagine being able to own this many books. What a dream come true. Though I would be filling some of the shelving with pottery since that is another thing I would love to collect and display in abundance. For sale via Inigo.

I spent a good hour hunting for a decent property for sale to share when I finally spotted this gem and nearly fell off my chair after checking out these views of Lake Como.
