SELLER INSIGHT
We purchased Windsmeet in 2002 when it was a modest 3-bedroom
bungalow. The serene location, just a short walk away from the Grand Western Canal, captivated us with its natural beauty and rich wildlife. There’s a lovely 50-minute circular walk right on Windsmeet’s doorstep. The area is ideal for dog walkers, fishermen, joggers, and photographers, and I’ve enjoyed spotting kingfishers, herons, and a variety of garden birds, including a sighting of a sparrow hawk, woodpecker, nuthatch and the usual finches and warblers.
Creating Windsmeet has been a labour of love, with my former husband and I involved in every design detail. I love its adaptability, with cozy spots for every mood. Guest-friendly features, like en-suite bedrooms, ensure privacy for family and friends, making it a great space for gatherings. I’ll miss the view from the kitchen, filled with visiting birds, and the warm charm of the spacious dining room, especially during Christmas.
Tidcombe Lane has a reliable bus service and is within walking distance of both a primary school and the prestigious Blundell’s school is nearby. It’s a friendly community, which I will miss as I move on, finding the house a bit too large for my current needs.
While we once planned to add an indoor swimming pool in the front garden, that dream didn’t materialize. However, there’s potential to build one, or possibly a summer house or annex, subject to planning permission.”
