Free house (no redecorating)

Want a Banksy mural?  It comes with a free house.

As the BBC reports, the vendors of a terrace house in Bristol were frustrated that prospective buyers stated intentions to destroy the Banksy artwork (and it is art) on the end wall, so have modified the sale: they're now specifically offering the mural, via a gallery rather than an estate agent, and the house is incidental.
