About this home
"The house just 'feels nice', you just feel at home there. The view out to the garden when you're washing up. How time seems to stay still when in the greenhouse and tending to the veggie plots. The wooded area around the back - no one knows it's there, so it feels like a secret den! I love the view from the bed in the back bedroom with the sun setting across the rooftops. Being a short walk from shops and bus routes. The cosy log burner in the kitchen, felt like a countryside escape."

Beyond the main garden lies a particularly unique and enchanting feature: an additional woodland area that extends the grounds and creates a truly special connection with nature.
