Exceptional detached cottage... no-one mention the nuclear power stations

The Sun takes estate agents Geering & Colyer to task after a reader turned up to look at a fisherman's cottage in, err, Dungeness and was shocked to find two large nuclear power stations clearly within view. (I know... only a Sun reader would turn up in a place called Dungeness and be surprised to find a little nuclear industry activity.) What the reader/newspaper resents, it appears, is that G&C took photos that didn't show the power stations in the background. But just, for a moment, imagine if they had. Imagine being the vendor. It would feel like sabotage. Mocked if they do, mocked if they don't. Perhaps a discreet mention would have been wise. Within easy reach of... convenient for... or something. Read it, here. Particulars, here.

I do not know why agents try to hide an obvious problem with a property. The problem exists and should be declared. There is nothing worse as a buyer than having your time wasted being shown unsuitbale properties.
I know some owners don't want negative comments on their property desciptions but ....................reality is reality. A power station in your backyard is pretty hard to hide!
