    I was reminded of this thread by seeing this property online. The back garden has been ... defoliated and next door appears to have a lot of bamboo.

    I strongly suspect that if anyone buys this, there will be bamboo coming up all over the place in that garden, and the defoliation is an attempt to hide that. But, that's just my guess. 

    In 2019 the house looked like this. Since 2022, or earlier, it's been fixed up and is now on sale. (By MMoA, which suggests ... difficulty selling.) I suspect there are a number of things glossed over, and on-topic for this thread suspect bamboo infestation clumsily hidden.
