Grandad struggling to flog £415k home uses doodle by granddaughter as Rightmove image

A grandad who is struggling to flog his £415,000 home has resorted to using a doodle by his eight-year-old granddaughter in place of a photo on Rightmove. Simon Rowley has struggled to sell his four-bed home in Doncaster, South Yorkshire, since October and estate agent Andrew Davy of EweMove has been worried the exterior images don't do it justice.

The 51-year-old playfully suggested a colourful sketch drawn by granddaughter Chloe Moss and to his shock Andrew added it as the online listing's first picture. Chloe's drawing shows off the detached home's impressive brick archway that leads to the front door - and the eight-year-old uses artistic licence when colouring the surrounding walls in pink pen.

It also features the property's extravagant stone porch and the sundial in the front garden. Andrew says he wanted 'something a little different' to help attract offers in the region of £415,000 and figured it would be a fun surprise for Simon and Chloe.
