“When Ray and Lynne Simon were given the house of their dreams for free, they had no hesitation in snapping it up. The only problem was the home sat on land due to be developed and the corporation who owned it told them if they wanted it they would have to move it. Now the American couple have brought new meaning to the expression of home away from home spending months relocating the 480-tonne building. Measuring 70-feet in length, this four-bedroom Victorian brick home was lifted from its foundations last July and was relocated just 1000 yards down the road in Butler, Pennsylvania.” w/ photos
