This original property was clearly built with a degree of refinement, and there are many interesting period features that remain – including a fabulous turret!

The land to the left and rear is retained by the owners for a future development of three homes.

This house is being sold separately and has off street parking, a garden, and a very useful outbuilding to the rear.

The main house has three well-proportioned reception rooms, plus a conservatory and kitchen to the ground floor, and a basement below.

Stairs within the turret lead to the first floor, where there are currently four bedrooms, a bathroom and a WC.

The owners have recently commissioned a building survey and an associated cost plan to understand required works better, and this can be made available on request.
