Hi Tia,
Thanks for your comment on my blog. It is good that you will move to the islands here
This house isn’t for sale. Many of these abandoned buildings are in the gardens of new homes. Big grants of about 94% were given to build new modern housing in the islands so these beautiful buildings were left to decay rather than spending money to repair. Though they are abandoned people still remember them as their childhood homes and it is a very strong personal family bond that they don’t want to give up to an incomer so no one sells, but it does seem ok to look at them.
