If you are looking for well presented, charming character family home that is conveniently located within easy access of the towns amenities then look no further! The property has a lovely feel and flow to it, whilst the secluded grounds have been meticulously designed to create the perfect sanctuary for entertaining family and friends during the Spring and Summer months.

What the owner says

This has been a fantastic home for us, we have thoroughly enjoyed living here and having a railway station located so close providing good access into London has been a huge bonus. It is with a heavy heart that we have decided to relocate to pastures new and allow another family to benefit from this lovely home.
