I realize the house is probably pretty outdated and the land is very valuable but I still find it sad that they’re knocking it down. Still, at least they’re saving the stuff.
I think they’re shockingly short-sighted. They could have had a steady income for years to come if they’d turned the place into a sort of museum. “……And in this room our dear Professor enjoyed sitting by the fire and thinking about Middle Earth….” It could have been a minor gold mine. Sad. Very sad.

They could give it to me… 🙂
And this little fan here would be willing to shell out more than $500,000 to get it, if she had the money. Stupid minimum wage job!
