It is the landmark Midland home that everyone knows - but no-one has seen inside. Known by locals in Wednesbury as the "windmill house", it took its owners a quarter-of-a-century to finish it with materials salvaged from doomed buildings across the region. And while the windmill - an usual feature in the Black Country - made for an eye-catching sight at the highest point in the town, the unique interior was publicly revealed for the first time after the Round House went up for sale priced at more than £1 million.
Covering more than an acre, it has three bedrooms, an open plan lounge and dining area with an indoor swimming pool. It also includes the famous windmill, tennis court and separate one bedroom lodge. It is the talk of the town after a 'coming soon' sales video went viral on Facebook.
Owner Matthew Humphries said he decided to sell the house after the death of his parents, David and Elizabeth Humphries, who were part of four generations to run the Humphries demolition business since 1919. He said: "My parents were demolition contractors who spent 40 years taking down old houses, schools, factories, and a few churches across the West Midlands. "From the schools they saved oak gym floors, from the old houses decorative brickwork, from the factories huge steel joists, and from the churches cast iron pillars and pieces of stone so heavy it took a crane to lift them.
