In recent years, our sellers have invested a great deal of time and energy in sympathetically restoring a tired property into a contemporary home offering comfortable living for an existing or growing family. The former stable block and loose boxes have been converted into high quality accommodation with the option to provide homes for dependent relatives who need occasional support or for older children, not yet ready to fly the nest. However, there is also the option to use the annexes to provide an income as monthly rental units or holiday lets. The choice is yours to make.
The property's character shines through with many original features that have been lovingly preserved throughout the renovation. These include, exposed stone walls and original flagstone flooring, sash windows - some with the original shutters, cobbled and flagstone paths as well as an original fireplace and winding drum, both listed in their own rights. In addition, during the course of restoration a wonderful fireplace was uncovered in the kitchen/dining/family room.
Outside, there is plenty of gated parking plus the coach house and garage, an alfresco dining area and an attractively landscaped walled garden, providing a tranquil oasis within a town setting.
For those seeking a home that combines history, character, and modern comfort, this property is a rare find. Don't miss the opportunity to make this house with annexes yours. A viewing is essential to appreciate all that it has to offer.
