This is an A4 piece of a white paper with a house image horizontally orientated in the centre of the poster. The image is rectangular shaped with approximate dimensions of 20cm in length and 10cm in height. The appearance is of a detached house with a background of sparsely distributed grey clouds amongst a generally clear blue sky. The house itself is rectangular shaped with two panels of triangular roofing and a further two smaller triangular shaped roofs covering two distinct rectangular shaped windows on the second floor. The property roof is covered with grey tiles. All the windows on the house are rectangular shaped with a number of small glass squares combining to make each window. The number of small squares required to make each window ranges from eight to twenty-four. The primary colours of the house are a combination of grey and white which are formed by what appear to be horizontal panels as well as grey outer linings and supporting pillars. On the left hand side of the property, there is a ground floor balcony and porch area which extends to the main entrance. There is an additional area of greenery in front of the house, extending approximately two-thirds of the width of the property, leaving the garage path open for driving and a narrow path to walk inside the house. On both sides of the path leading to the main entrance, there are decorative bushes planted whilst under the panoramic window, there is also a single tree. Finally, a single white post box can be seen orientated to the centre right of the property, proximal to the grass lawn.
