Pig photo on Rightmove was ‘a mistake’ says agent

Property particulars which include a picture of a sleeping pig led to a spate of online comment.

Connells in Ipswich later removed the porcine photo which appeared on Rightmove.

The pig – bearing little resemblance to every small child’s heroine, Peppa – looks to be a pet kept in the one-bedroom detached house which was formerly a meeting hall.

One quip was: “It is often harsh to describe a residential property as a pigsty, but in this case it seems justified.”

Another said: “Buy a house in Ipswich and get a free pig.”

Connells said the photo had been put up in error.

Pig ignorant we may be, but what kind of error was that?

    Owner was told by the Agent that viewers love the smell of fresh baking. Obviously, he's a little hard of hearing… ;o)
