Tanith Lee's house still for sale; price dropped; now also on Rightmove; home open 24th Sept. 2016
Award-winning SF/fantasy/horror writer Tanith Lee died in 2015. Her house, in a quiet residential area of Hastings, UK, is now for sale. It is a detached property with a huge, lovely, wild garden. It's a very large house by UK standards, with two bathrooms and five bedrooms (including Tanith's workroom). It does need some modernisation, so is offered at a bargain price. It contains many personal touches particular to Tanith and her artist husband and it's a very special opportunity to get hold of a piece of UK SF history. The asking price is now £325,000.
Tanith's husband has asked me to spread the word that the house is for sale. I know many of my friends are Tanith Lee fans and know more people who are, so I am hoping people can share this post widely and encourage other people to do the same. It's an amazing house, and it would be a shame if it was sold to a developer or someone who did not appreciate the history of 25 years of creativity that took place within its walls.
Details of the property, including a floor plan, can be seen in the real estate advertisement on Rightmove:

It's worth noting that the real estate photos are a few months old and that the gardens have been tided and some improvements made to the interior since they were taken.
There is a home open on Saturday, 24th of September 2016.
If anyone would like more details please contact the real estage agent directly, or email me at kylie_ding@hotmail.com.
