Kelly Hudson use the well-reheased idea of poetic licence in estate agents' property descriptions to distinguish themselves, perhaps aiming to be a Roy Brooks of Ireland. One of Roy Brooks' property descriptions from the 60s ran as follows:
Darkest Pimlico. Seedy FAMILY HOUSE two rooms in the basement, ground, 1st & 2nd floors and attic rm. on 3rd. Decor! peeling, faded and fly blown. Garden - good G.R. £60 p.a. £6,950. If you are too late to secure this gem we have a spare along the road rather more derelict. A lightly built member of our staff negotiated the basement stair but our Mr. Halstead went crashing through.
Property is taken so much more seriously nowadays Kelly Hudson would have a hard time trying to convince vendors to do something similar.
