“Woman sells home after 102 years”
Nancy Gifford is selling the house she has lived in for more than a hundred years.
Nancy is 104 years old, and she’s lived in the house since she was two years old.
That was when her family bought the three-bedroom house for £200, or about 8,300 baht, in the town of Street.
It is now priced at £170,000 or about 7 million baht.
When Mrs Gifford moved in as a two-year-old, the toilet and wash area was outside, and a tin bath hung on the wall outside. Now there’s a new bathroom and kitchen, but much of the house remains the same.
Mrs Gifford is selling the house and moving to a nursing home because of her health.
