Owner Insight

"When we first walked into this property, we were instantly captivated by its sense of space and character. The high ceilings and grand proportions are all hallmarks of its Victorian heritage, a light and airy atmosphere that’s both elegant and welcoming.

The renovation has blended modern comfort with original charm, retaining many of its features. The spacious rooms offer versatility for both entertaining and everyday living, and the secluded garden is a hidden sanctuary - a rare retreat that feels worlds away, despite being right in the heart of the high street.

The convenience of stepping out to the local cafés, pub, post office, butchers, Co-Op and independent shops, combined with nearby transport links makes life incredibly easy. Yet, once inside, the property feels entirely private, quiet and full of character."
