You have to take your hat off to those Victorian housebuilders - they certainly knew what they were doing. Although they didn't build every room of every house huge, they applied a standard type of practice which included things that we term as features today - like stripped wooden floorboards, pine doors, wooden sash windows, ornate fireplaces, the list goes on... Things you just don't get in modern houses today. And this house, believed to have been built around the 1890s for workers at the nearby brickworks, is no exception, retaining the whole look and feel of what the Victorians set out to achieve - this is one fantastic example. Though the previous and current owners have gone even further, and sympathetically improved the house not only by converting the loft to a full aspect big bedroom, but by sourcing various materials from a variety of different places so that the house now includes internal feature glass windows, and even patio doors from the film set of Shaun of The Dead...! Unbroken by any zombie, the glass in the doors has been manufactured to actually give a frosty look at the edges for the part, and someone buying this house will probably want to note the scene in the film when their patio doors get their debut so they can tell their dinner guests! This is a great house, makes a great family home, and is bound to go to the first person to fall in love with it...
