Agatha Christie’s English summer home
The BBC features images of it pre-renovation here, while the Telegraph has some illuminating photos here.
Agatha Christie bought Greenway, a Georgian mansion on the southern tip of England, in the late 1930s. At the time, Christie bought the mansion and 33-acre property for £6,000, and then had an architect renovate it, reportedly telling him, “I want a big bath and I need a ledge because I like to eat apples.”
