Somerset woman sells house after 102 years living there
A Woman marked her 104th birthday on Tuesday by putting The House she has lived in for More Than a century on The Market .
In the 102 years Nancy 'Joan' Gifford has lived in the three-bedroom terraced house in Somerset, The World has witnessed World War Two, the invention of TV and the moon landings.
Its £169,950 asking price dwarves the £200 her parents paid for it.
Despite The Passage of time, much of the Property remains the same.
Mrs Gifford's son John, 79, said Growing Up in the Property - which was built in 1882 in Street - was " fantastic".
" Back in The Day most children our age knew everybody, and we all had an Open House , and it was fine to leave your door on the latch, " he added.
" We were all poor, but everyone was happy. "
When Mrs Gifford moved in as a two-year-old, the Property 's kitchen, toilet and wash area were open to The Elements , while a tin bath hung on The Wall outside.
The area has since been covered over and a new kitchen installed, alongside an extension for The Family bathroom, but much of the Property remains the same, except for a lick of paint in the early 2000s.
Growing Up in Street , Mrs Gifford went to The Convent School in Glastonbury, where she met her future husband, Bert, in the mid-1930s while walking with her friends.
The pair married at the start of World War Two in 1939 and went on to have Two Children , Mary and John - who still lives in Street with his wife Sue.
After The War , Mr Gifford spent 42 years working at The Clarks factory in Street as a heel pairer, while his wife was a stitcher for the shoe-maker.
Declining health has forced Mrs Gifford to move out to the nearby St Benedict's Nursing Home in Glastonbury, Estate Agent Holland and Odam, who is selling the Property , said.
Jack Bartram, The Manager of its Street branch, said: " That house must hold so many lovely memories for Mrs Gifford and her family, but now, after More Than a century, it's time for another family to make some memories. "
