This is a large and spacious family home comprising of an impressive entrance hall, two large reception rooms, gorgeous kitchen diner, downstairs WC and a basement with huge potential.

What The Owner Says
'We knew we had to buy this property the moment we viewed it. We adore houses with period features and this house is choc full of them. From the day we moved in there have been so many happy occasions, from the marquee we had in the garden to celebrate our engagement , our wedding, and the birth of our gorgeous children, this home has almost been part of our family. Although the decision to sell is bittersweet we feel that now is the right time for us as a family to move on, and can only hope that whoever buys this property can enjoy as much happiness as we have.
