Move across twelve private-space lenses, from daylight and ensuite questions to familiar objects and visit preparation.
Read eight household-rhythm cards while keeping current menus and private dietary information outside the app.
Use four garden thresholds to consider shade, planting, weather and personal choice.
Explore ten nearby-place categories without turning the app into a live map or business directory.
Prepare practical parking, scooter-storage, charging and route questions for an in-person check.
Follow four dated public milestones from the model's arrival in Aotearoa to the Stoke house's thirtieth birthday.

Grounded in public detail
The official St Francis Way page describes a house for twelve residents, ground-floor studios with ensuites, mostly north-facing rooms, screened patios, raised flower gardens, parking and two lock-up mobility-scooter sheds with charging facilities.
The app turns these anchors into questions. Its scenes are fictional editorial illustrations and do not document current rooms, residents, availability or conditions.
