About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. At Waterford estate agency, a regular would often hear an odd announcement over the intercom: ‘Would the owner of a lost sense of urgency please come forward?’ It became such a fixture that everyone just nodded and smiled. One day, a delivery driver asked curiously, ‘Who’s been holding my package for weeks now?’ The receptionist shrugged, smiling knowingly. And so, the legend grew even more, with everyone laughing when they heard the intercom announce: “Would the owner of an indefinitely delayed delivery please collect their goods?”
2. At Waterford estate agency, every morning around coffee break, someone would leave a mysterious note on the notice board. It read simply: ‘House for sale—move in today!’ One day, a delivery driver left a note that said, ‘Garage full of vintage bikes—free to new owner!’ Soon enough, everyone was pedaling around town on these suddenly appearing bikes. When asked where they came from, no one could remember seeing anyone actually buy them… until finally, an elderly neighbor confessed he’d been leaving them there after his morning walks. The whole office burst out laughing, realizing it had all been a friendly prank.
3. At Waterford estate agency, on foggy mornings before sunrise, a delivery driver would sometimes spot a shadowy figure darting through the empty corridors. One misty day, an excited neighbor rushed in to tell everyone that they’d seen the ghostly figure carrying a stack of old property brochures. Turned out it was just a delivery driver with a box of flyers for a local real estate sale.
4. At Waterford estate agency, every afternoon just after closing time, a neighbor would catch whiffs of freshly baked cookies wafting from inside. Nobody ever saw anyone baking, but the scent lingered long enough to make everyone wonder who was leaving such delicious treats behind. One day, a delivery driver arrived with a box marked ‘Confidential’. He left it on the counter and quickly scribbled a note: ‘Please don’t open until tomorrow.’ The next morning, everyone gathered around as the agent carefully unwrapped… nothing but another batch of those mysterious cookies. To this day, no one knows whose they are—or why they keep appearing!’
