A homeowner has been backed online for taking a stand against a neighboring Airbnb owner who is profiting out of the views from the property.
Reddit user, u/Few_Orchid1376 explained in a now viral post that they bought a historical property in 2022 which was previously run as a hotel, but has now been turned back into a luxurious private home.
However, a small gardener’s cottage on the land was sold separately, and is now being run as an Airbnb, much to the homeowner’s surprise.
The post reads: “We turned the property back into a private residence. A main country road runs right by the longest edge of the unfenced garden, so we decided to plant hedges for privacy and to block off access in case my nephews visit and play football.
“There is a small gardener’s cottage right at the edge of this line, which was sold separately when we bought our home. We made sure to keep any bushes between us and them on our side of the property line.”
An elderly couple sold the cottage to a relative, who said he planned to rent it out as an Airbnb.
It was being marketed as a chance to spend some time on the land and take in the glorious views of the historic property. But after months of growing the new hedges, those views are now diminished, and the cottage can no longer pride itself on having such incredible vistas.
