Another fan wondered about the terms of the sale, commenting, “Beautiful! And what great views! How does it work there – since it was so beautifully decorated – did it sell with all the decor and furnishings too? That would be my dream to find a house already in my style, decorated with all the furniture ready to just move my clothes and kitchen stuff in. lol. 😃.” Pennington replied, noting that the new owners, “wanted to keep a few things so we left those ❤️.”
