Owned by the same family for fifty years, this is a really lovely family home which is in need of updating. A substantial extension was added in the 1990 s which could offer new opportunities to reconfigure the kitchen.

The hallway opens up to a larger area, suitable as a small office but currently used as cloakroom, off which is a w.c. This area also leads to two of the reception rooms which would make a great open plan kitchen and family room, if desired. It has been used as a games room and a study in the past.
