A handsome and imposing detached Victorian villa of 2,920 square feet, providing well-presented family accommodation in a popular country lane location and with an established garden and grounds of about 3.15 acres.

A handsome and imposing detached Victorian villa offering 2,920 square feet of well-presented family accommodation. The owners have undertaken a period of renovation in recent years, resulting in a very high standard interior. Improvements include: a new roof; new boiler with Hive-controlled heating system; new bathrooms; redecoration and recarpeting throughout; Google Nest Protect smoke/CO2 alarms fitted throughout. The elevations are brick, tile hung beneath a tiled roof.
Whilst completely independent and detached, the house is located near to some high-end apartments which used to form part of a Victorian school, with The Presbytery forming the previous school house, and therefore maintaining many of the beautiful period features.
The main features are:
