"My late wife and I moved here in 1990, raising our son in this special house. It’s been filled with laughter, especially in the kitchen that looks out over our long sunny garden. We’re only the third family to have lived here in 125 years! The family before us had it for nearly ninety years - it’s time for someone else to cherish it."
This property is suitable for a buyer with renovation experience, looking to add value and design a home to their taste.
