I'm having a CRAZY CLEAROUT in an attempt to de-clutter. I've bought too many of practically everything! I have expensive taste and this includes a hoard of designer bags and other items. Some have never been used/worn; others maybe just a handful of times. Decision is made - many must go! I hope to list all types of things over the next couple of months so please do put me on watch if you think you might like my style. I'm sure there will be BARGAINS TO BE HAD. You may find you can complete your gift list as well as your own ticklist! This is the first listing but I have reduced the price in the hope of a quick sale. If not successful, I will re-list at a higher price. I mention this to avoid prospective buyers asking why the price has gone up on a later listing. Chris Rouch of TOPTOISE (highly respected in the Dolls House world).

REDUCED FOR QUICK SALE BUT WILL NOT BE REDUCING AGAIN. LIKE NEW in every way. Very few Toptoise houses are made & can take about 12 months from start - possibly longer as Chris is now cutting down on work. I fell in love with this house as soon as I saw it at the MINIATURA EXHIBITION at the NEC in 2015.

Chris & his wife Jean were showcasing this house, being newly built and based on a REAL HOME. Despite having it for 3 years, I have never actually used or decorated the house because of ill health. I've been collecting furniture but never added any furnishings until preparing for the se photographs. A beautiful house to have on show whether lit up (via easy access switches) or not, furnished or not. 12 photographs are not enough to show off all the beauty of this house. THE ATTENTION TO DETAIL IS MAGNIFICENT. Especially on such a small scale.

For example, there are 2 tiny grids on the edges of the flat roof "garden" to help drain away the rain as well as drain pipes. There are 2 gorgeous Art Deco fireplaces - so intricate in tiny detail. Wall-lights, doors and windows are made in the Arts & Crafts style.

PHOTOS DO NOT DO IT JUSTICE. As it's difficult to highlight the features and scale. You will notice little features within the building that are so typical of the era; that's part of the beauty of Toptoise houses. I wish I could include at least twice as many pics to show off the many special features. All lights work independently from switches on one side of the house base. With front of house facing, the row of switches is on the bottom right of the base. BUILT ON TO A PLATFORM WITH TURNTABLE , THE HOUSE CAN BE MOVED ROUND TO ACCESS ANY SIDE EASILY, even the back. Even when not in use, the house is still an attractive piece on display.

I would really like to sell this one to someone who can appreciate & enjoy it. FURNITURE SHOWN IS FOR DEMONSTRATION PURPOSES TO GIVE AN IDEA OF HOW SPACIOUS THE ROOMS ARE.

FURNITURE AS WELL AS HOUSE HAVE NEVER BEEN USED & PLACED IN HOUSE ONLY FOR PHOTOS. FURNITURE IS NOT INCLUDED IN THE SALE.

Some pieces of furniture will be listed separately - just when will depend on priorities. Chris works very hard on the making of his pieces spending hours on creating so many features to fit in with the period of the house. Like me, he is a perfectionist! HOUSE: Width: 27.5" / 70cm, Height: Ground Floor Only - 8.25"/ 21cm to top of railing OR 14.25"/ 36cm to top of chimney (+ base height), Depth: 20.5"/ 52cm. BASE: Width: 31.5" / 80cm, Height: 1.25"/ 3cm, Depth: 24.25/ 62cm.

You will require a transformer though to use the lights & fire. It came without when I bought the house. Unfortunately, I have never bought enough for all of my houses & some require 2 so they have to share. Since this one hasn't been used, it never had its own transformer. Please ensure you have enough space to fit the house into your transport.

I do have details of a recommended courier for transporting dolls houses at a reasonable price if you would like it. (or will pack up carefully if you wish to use a courier service but this would be at your risk).

I have used the service of Shiply in the past to find a suitable courier at the right price. I would advise checking with potential couriers that they will treat the house and contents with care. I do have one contact who may be able to offer a competitive price depending on where you live & I have now been recommended another careful & reasonable courier so could pass on these details if you wish. If you'd to see any particular part of the house and have Whatsapp, please contact me on 07973 10 20 12 & I will photograph it for you.

Any observations are in my opinion & so could be open to interpretation but I strive to give an honest & full description. I declare even the slightest deviation for storefresh as I like my buyers to know what to expect and not be greeted by any unpleasant surprises.

I check my items thoroughly when listing and disclose even the slightest variation from new. I offer this only because I KNOW that all of my items are AUTHENTIC. I have a good reputation & wish to keep it that way.
