Our teenage children have enjoyed the space, as well as having their own bathrooms! The garden is beautiful and we have spent many happy hours relaxing outside.
It’s a great house for entertaining, as the flow of the rooms really works. The neighbourhood is extremely friendly and there’s a thriving street WhatsApp, where people are always willing to help.
My husband loves admiring the green views from the upstairs bathroom, where you can see for miles. Walking into town is a breeze and within minutes you’re at the train station.
We hope the new occupants will be as happy as we have been!
