A superb, detached family home of enormous character standing in an exclusive address
within delightful gardens with the additional benefit of a garage to the rear
Location - Castlecroft Gardens is a highly regarded address which is within easy walking distance of local amenities.
The majority of the properties are homes of much character with exposed timbering and it is a lovely setting of much distinction.

Description - Grey Beams is a fine example of a Hutchinson Smith house who was an architect who specialised in creating unique period style properties using traditional style methods of building and reclaimed materials. There is an abundance of character throughout with much fine timbering creating a unique house of huge attraction and elevations of enormous architectural interest.
The property benefits from well proportioned living accommodation over two floors which would now benefit from a gentle scheme of modernisation throughout, affording buyers the opportunity to make the home “their own”.
