Comics can be very cinematic - this strip is essentially a dolly shot, with the camera pulling back gradually to reveal the bush in the final panel.
Smith's house at this point appears to be a red brick Victorian house, of the sort I used to live in in Tunbridge Wells. It gradually changed over the following year until it turned into a 1960s sitcom house of the kind Samantha and Darren lived in in Bewitched - essentially a bigger posher version of the flat I now live in in Hastings. The sash windows you see here have become picture windows, and the first floor has developed a balcony.
