--------------------------------------------------------------------------

They landed in what looked like the country side in Northern England. There where planes of fields as far as the eye could see but there was a sweet view of the ocean not even five miles away. This was the view the group was presented with when they landed. Lily looked around confused as to where the house was. When she turned to look behind them she gasped. Which this caused the rest of them to look as well. Standing there was the most three in a half story, Victorian style house that Lily hand ever seen. She shook her head a few times before pulling out the picture of the house and holding it up. It was the same one that Tonks thought they would like. It was painted white with green shutters and a dark green tile roof. There where several room’s that had balconies. There was a wrap around porch in front.

“Isn’t this the one that Aunt Tonks wanted to look at?” Susie said braking the silence that had fell around them.

“Yeah it is. It’s better than the picture.” Kate said looking at the picture Lily was holding and the house.

“This can’t be the same house though.” Lily said in disbelief, looking back and forth from the house in front of them and the house in the picture.

“Why do you say that, Lily?” Ginny asked with a sly smile.

“It doesn’t seem possible that this house in front of us has stayed this. . . .perfect for this long.” Lily said looking at her mother. “You knew didn’t you?”

“Knew what?” Alex asked.

“When we were looking through all the house pictures. Your mom picked this one. When I looked at this picture.” She held out the picture to Alex “I said I liked it.”

Alex took the picture and looked between it and the house. “So what’s the problem? I see no difference between them.” Alex said looking back at Lily.

“The difference is that last night I did come look at the house. It wasn’t this perfect then.” Lily said turning back to her mother. “You had some of the House Elf’s come and clean it, didn’t you?”

“Yes I did. Normally when you say you like something it usually mean’s that you want it.” Ginny said smiling at her eldest daughter. “Any way your father and I where going to give you, Alex, and Kayleigh this house to begin with.”

“Wha?” Alex and Lily said at the same time.

“Yes, we have only come up here so very little after you and your younger siblings where born that I thought you might like having it. It’s way from the rest of us enough to where you can have your privacy, it’s away from the reporters so you can have your privacy from the world.” Ginny answered. “And you always did say that you wanted a Victorian Style house that had enough rooms for your own children, but still felt homey enough to call your own. When you looked at that picture for the first time you couldn’t take your eyes off of it.”

Lily blushed a little. It was true that she couldn’t take her eyes of the picture after seeing the house for the first time. It was like a dream come true when she first saw it. Now it was. When she came here the night before it didn’t look like much. It look abandon for more than eighteen years. She now knew that her mother had the House Elf’s clean it up so they could see it’s true beauty. “I still say I like it.” she said looking back at the house in front of her.

“Mommy?” Kayleigh said looking up at Lily. “I like it too.” Lily smiled and picked her up.

“Do you like it enough to live here?” Lily asked her.

“Yes! Can we go look inside?” she answered with her own sweet little smile. Which made the rest of them smile as well.

“Well it looks like the littlest Princess has spoken what she wants.” Alex said kissing her on the head. “Let’s go in.” and they followed Ginny to the front door, were hidden away within marble shelter, three steps leading up to it. The magnificent rich mahogany doors were bound together by a broad metal straps.

“Patefaacio Sesame!” Nanny Marry breathed.

“Open Sesame.” Ginny said with a big smile. The doors swung open, admitting them to a grand entrance hall, A marble floor lead to the main stair case that was made from marble as well. A chandelier hung elegantly from the ceiling, and candle holders made from silver, were placed on the mahogany walls. Rugs were laden upon the floor, warming up the bright atmosphere to the maximum. Pictures were hung, in cherry wood frames on the walls.

“Oh this is better than I had ever dreamed it would be.” Lily said falling in love with the sight that was greeted her in the entrance hall. “Alex want do you think?”

“I like it so far lets look around some more before I say my final decision.” Alex said. To the left of the marble stair case was the extensive two story library, one of the two studies and the bathrooms. To the right of the stairs was the drawing room, and the parlor. Behind the stairs was the Chef’s kitchen, and dinning room that can set up to thirty people. It was all to good to be true but here it was for them all to see. With every room that they walked through, Lily fell deeper in love with it. While Alex started to like it as well.

On the second floor there where four bed rooms, the Master suite being one of them. There was also the second floor entry of the library, and the second study as well as three of the bathrooms, one being the Master bathroom. One the third floor there where four more bedrooms and two more bathrooms, and on the top floor was the last bed room and the last bathroom, with the attic. The grounds to the house was extensive. There was a swimming pool, a very nice patio to lunge out on. There was a Quidditch pitch which made Alex make his final decision. It was perfect and it felt homey just like Lily had wanted it to.

“So what do you guys think?” Ginny asked watching her eldest daughter and her son-in-law. Alex and Lily looked at each other. Then back at Ginny.

“I think we can live here. It’s feels homey like I wanted and it has enough room for a growing family.” Lily answered

“I agree.” Alex answered pulling Lily into his arms.

“Good because it’s your already.” Ginny said with a smile. “When ever your ready to move in you can. I’m happy you like it here.”

“Thank you mum.” Lily said giving Ginny a hug. They smiled and giggled a little before they turned to the rest of the group.

“So does that mean we can come visit?” Ginger asked looking hopeful of getting out of the castle.

“We’ll see Ginger.” Ginny said firmly to the twins and Susie. “Now let’s get back before your father starts to worry about us.” Alex held out the portkey they had been using all day and they Portkeyed back to ‘Potter Castle’.
