Estate agent makes big change to pictures of cottage as it goes on market for first time in a century – can you spot it?
CARS are cheekily airbrushed out from full parking bays in an estate agent’s snaps for a property.
Dozens of motors line the street near Ely Cathedral in the original.
But they and the white painted lines are gone in the edited version — making the Grade II listed house look like it was in a peaceful lane in the Cambridgeshire city.
One local said: “I did a double-take when I saw the photo as the parking bays are always full.”
Agent Jackson-Stops Newmarket said the photo was an “error” and has now been removed.
“This was an error that does not align with our high standards for transparency in property marketing. The image has been removed from the listing.”
Four-bed Palace Green Cottage — also listed on Rightmove at £895,000 — is on the market for the first time in 100-plus years.
It boasts an array of period features, including sash windows, herringbone brick floors and a bread oven.
The property is built of Cambridgeshire buff and pink brick and has impressive chimney stacks.
The cottage comes with a walled courtyard garden and is situated in a unique position next to Palace Green in the city centre, with stunning views of the Cathedral.
