(Click on image below to expand to full size)
Owner's Quote:
"A restaurant on Scott Road went belly up a few years ago. I took one look at their
awning and knew that with a few minor modifications it'd be perfect for my place. The only
thing that sucks is after driving home drunk I have to pull myself up that bloody winding
staircase!"
Special Features:
* Lovely awnings - perfect for produce vendors & garage sale peddlers; also a great
place at top of stairs for all you Surrey-ites to use when that quick change of disguise
is required! Giant tear in awning from when owner threw his mother out the window during a
card game dispute. Overhead awnings designed to keep the search light from the Surrey RCMP
out during those private family moments when you're trying to escape.
* Foliage in foreground adds quaint charm to home-made aluminum fence.
* House needs some repairs but nothing that a Surrey man can't accomplish with a pry bar,
door shimmy and a shotgun. Maintenance is minimal for a family always on the run.
* Spiral staircase is prominently featured on outside of house as it was too big to fit
through the doorway.
* Garage only used on Sundays.
* Well designed privacy fence - low landscaping costs, and overhead wiring - with capacity
to power a "growing" family.
* Plenty of parking for at least three flatdeck trucks.
* Roof top art titled,
“Giving your neighbours the finger.”
* Priced to sell as owner is moving to a tax free haven for the next 5 to 10 years.
