Welcome,everybody,to the lovely house and gardensof Rosewood,once the home of the famouswriter,Sebastian George.He bought the house in1902 although he had first seen it two yearsearlier.At that time the owners let it out to a tenantbecause George was too slow making up his mind tobuy it.When it came back on the market,there wasno hesitation and he bought it immediately,for￡9,300，even though the house had nobathroom,no running water upstairs,and noelectricity.
When he came here,he'd been married for ten years.During that time,he'd become one of themost famous writers in the English-Speaking world.His professional success wasenormous,but his personal life wasn't as successful.
