Why our client has loved living here:
“Quiet area and detached house . Nice neighbours all round but very private and great garden that used to produce lots of crops. Some good period features and nice big rooms for the three kids we brought up here all of whom have thrived and even learned the bagpipes and trumpet without upsetting us or the neighbours. Not far from bus and train. We have made good long term friends locally. We are going to miss this place.. The hall and staicase will always be remembered. Did I mention the bar?”
