"Talgai is a well presented period home located in the quiet hamlet of Albury Heath. The property features a red brick front facade, with a combination of red brick and tile hung details to the rear. A notable feature of the house is its decorative chimneys.
Typical of its era, the home offers good sized rooms, high ceilings, and several attractive fireplaces. The property has been well maintained by the current owners, but also offers great potential for the new owner to extend and update if desired.
The property is set back from the road behind a wooden five bar gate, with an in and out gravel driveway providing ample parking. The rear garden is a generous 0.81 acres, mostly flat and laid to lawn, with a variety of mature shrubs, trees, and plants. Accessed from the kitchen, dining room, and drawing room through double French doors, the south facing gravel terrace enjoys sunlight for most of the day, making it a lovely space to relax or entertain. The garden gate opens directly onto the expansive Albury Heath, offering immediate access to acres of picturesque heathland and scenic walking trails.
