This has been a very special place for the past 30 years in an amazing and tranquil location with wonderful views and places to go for walks but it is time to downsize and move closer to family. While we have enjoyed updating the property over the years, including converting the garage, there are plenty of opportunities for new owners to put their own stamp on the house and create their own unique and individual home. We are not far from Kingsdown with its three pubs, a good primary school, convenience store and post office as well as the Kingsdown and Walmer golf club. Walmer includes local shops, bars and restaurants, a bandstand, the Downs Sailing Clubhouse and a mainline station with fast trains to St Pancras taking an hour and 20 minutes. The Tides swimming pool complex is not far away and Deal is close by with its plethora of quaint streets, period properties, excellent restaurants including the Dining Club, The Blue Pelican and Little Harriet’s tea rooms. There are also a raft of attractive independent shops as well as the Saturday market, the seafront with its historic pier and the Royal Cinque Ports golf club and, if you want to go slightly further afield, you will find the championship courses at Sandwich. As far as education is concerned there are very good primary schools in the area while a wide variety of excellent grammar and private schools are available in the nearby towns.

Built in 1580, it is one of those exceptionally rare homes that feels extraordinary at first glance: rich in history, full of character and imbued with a warmth that cannot be manufactured. Despite its distinguished heritage, it has always felt wonderfully easy to live in. Behind its handsome façade lies a private sanctuary where the outside world melts away and the peaceful garden feels a million miles from everyday life. What truly set Bell House apart for us was this remarkable combination of tranquillity and convenience. Within minutes, we could reach the A1, the A14 and Huntingdon station, making connections effortless without compromising the calm of village life. Over the years, we have carefully enhanced the house with enormous respect for its heritage. The roof has been completely renewed, original wooden floors and pamment tiles lovingly restored, fireplaces reopened and a former cowshed transformed into a beautifully appointed guest suite. Every improvement has been guided by longevity, comfort and a desire to preserve the soul of the house. The interior were thoughtfully designed by well-known interior designers Joanne Lindsay and Jane Keisner. Bell House has witnessed the happiest chapters of our family life. Our children spent carefree summers picking fruit from the garden, sleeping in the treehouse, racing along a zip wire through the orchard and cycling through the village ford. The garden itself is magical: sun-filled from morning until dusk, with magnificent sunsets and spaces equally suited to quiet reflection or lively gatherings. Entertaining here has always been effortless. Intimate candlelit dinners have stretched long into the night, while fundraising events and celebrations for over a hundred guests have flowed seamlessly through the four reception rooms. Yet, when the house is quiet, our favourite retreat remains the principal bedroom and dressing room: indulgent, comforting and utterly peaceful. Bell House doesnt seek to impress; it charms everyone who walks through the door. offering history, warmth and a setting in which memories are made and treasured for generations.

This is a rare opportunity to acquire not only a beautiful rural home, but also a property with the infrastructure, privacy and setting to support a lifestyle-led income opportunity. Enjoying a peaceful rural valley position with no near neighbours, Lynher House offers an exceptional sense of seclusion while still providing an excellent platform for a buyer to create their own vision. The current owners have used Lynher House as the base for a highly personal retreat offering, and whilst that operation is closely connected to them, the property itself provides an excellent platform for a buyer to create their own holiday accommodation, a variety of retreats or guest stays. A smallholding venture may also be possible, subject to any necessary consents. The Main House At the heart of the property is a beautifully presented detached period cottage, full of warmth, character and charm. The accommodation has been improved sympathetically, retaining the feel of a traditional country home while providing practical and comfortable living space. The entrance hall leads through to a wonderful open-plan kitchen, dining room, which forms the natural hub of the house. With slate flooring, fitted kitchen units, an island and a brick chimney breast currently housing a bioethanol stove, this is a sociable and inviting space for everyday living. A rear door opens directly onto the rear patio, creating a natural connection with the outside entertaining areas. The sitting room is equally characterful, with a wood-burning stove, beamed ceiling, part slate flagged flooring and dual-aspect windows overlooking the gardens and surrounding countryside. Also on the ground floor is a large utility/garden room, with access to the rear patio and a separate cloakroom/WC, adding useful practicality for a home of this nature. On the first floor, there are three double bedrooms, two with en suite facilities, together with a family bathroom and a separate study/home office. The master bedroom enjoys countryside views, built-in storage and an en suite bathroom with both bath and shower facilities. The study offers flexibility and could be used as a home office, games room or occasional fourth bedroom. Studio Annexe and Lifestyle Accommodation A key feature of Lynher House is the studio/annexe, converted by the present owners, which now provides flexible studio-style accommodation. This space can be accessed from the main house or potentially used separately, making it ideal for multi-generational living, guest accommodation, retreat use, treatment space or holiday letting. The studio includes a living/kitchen/dining area, en suite facilities and a mezzanine bedroom area, giving it excellent flexibility. French windows open out to its own private patio with countryside views. Within the grounds are three beautifully presented, high-end shepherd’s huts, which have been used as guest accommodation as part of the owners’ retreat-style use of the property. These provide a strong lifestyle and income angle, particularly for buyers considering holiday letting, retreats, guest accommodation or a boutique rural escape. There is also a traditional stone barn within the grounds, which we understand previously had planning consent for conversion into a small dwelling. This may offer further scope to enhance the accommodation or lifestyle business potential, subject to renewing or securing the necessary permissions. Outside, Gardens and Grounds Lynher House sits within generous gardens and grounds, understood to extend to just under four acres in total. The land offers an attractive mix of formal gardens, productive outdoor space, natural areas and stream frontage. To the rear of the house is a paved patio terrace, creating a sheltered and private space for outside dining and entertaining. Across the lane, the main gardens and land include lawned areas, a productive kitchen garden, orchard, woodland and two large ponds. The land has historically supported a smallholding lifestyle and will appeal to buyers with interests in self-sufficiency, animals, nature, wellness or simply enjoying a quieter rural way of life. A stream runs along part of the boundary, adding to the charm and natural appeal of the setting. Location Lynher House occupies a wonderfully peaceful position in the historic Clapper Bridge locality, nestled within a beautiful rural valley in South East Cornwall. With no near neighbours, it offers an exceptional sense of peace and seclusion, while remaining well placed for day-to-day amenities and wider regional connections. Nearby villages include Pillaton and St Mellion, with local facilities including a primary school, churches, public houses and the renowned St Mellion International Golf Resort. Saltash is within easy reach and offers a wider range of amenities, including shops, supermarkets, schooling and a mainline railway station. Plymouth, the A38, Callington and Liskeard are also accessible, while Bodmin Moor, Dartmoor, the Tamar Valley and the Cornish and Devon coastline are all within driving distance. Agent’s Comment Lynher House is far more than a country home with land. It is a beautifully positioned rural home with an exceptional lifestyle angle. The combination of the main house, studio annexe, shepherd’s huts, stone barn, lawned area, gardens and stream frontage creates a highly versatile package. For buyers looking to create a wellness retreat, boutique holiday letting venture, multi-generational home, smallholding or simply a more peaceful rural lifestyle, this is a genuinely compelling opportunity.

Coming down the tree lined drive studded with primroses in the spring, one has no inkling as to what a discovery awaits around the corner. First are the cottages and barns and then suddenly, a picture postcard image opens up, as this Grade II listed Devon long house comes into view with its eyebrow thatching and cream painted cob elevations. At the front there is plenty of gravel parking and before entering through the fine oak front door, turn around and just take in the surrounds - it is quite special. Coming in through the front doorway, the dining hall really sets the tone for the old part of the house, with its impressive stone fireplace with inset log burner, original bread oven, stone paved flooring and exposed beams with decorative inserts. A honey oak church style door leads into a fine drawing room with its wonderful oak plank flooring, impressive inglenook fireplace with wood burner and a strategically placed window seat overlooking the front. Leading on from here is the dining room with a slate paved floor and a door opening into a cellar room, ideal for wine storage. Over more recent times, the property has been cleverly extended with an amazing contemporary build incorporating honeyed oak plank flooring and floor to ceiling glass in an oak frame gable, looking out onto the landscaped gardens beyond. This ‘L’ shaped room with the kitchen to one end allows for zoned living areas, as here, with sofas and chair in the gable end, optimising the view and natural light, plus an eating area with ample room for a table and chairs. In addition to the underfloor heating, there is a modern log effect gas fire set in a fine stone fireplace, linking the two areas together. The Chalon kitchen with Miele and Franke appliances offers a plethora of polished granite work surfaces with storage and wall units and a large central island with solid maple top. Sitting along one wall is an impressive range of cooking ware that would satisfy most keen cooks who enjoy entertaining, with a 4 oven Aga and warming plate, and an Aga range cooker with 5 gas rings and 3 electric ovens. The large central island unit with lighting, power points and pan hooks above doubles up as a social bistro counter as well as food prep station. Beyond the kitchen is a conservatory/ garden room which overlooks the substantial terrace outside, down to the river below. On the opposite end of the kitchen is a utility room with an extensive range of cupboards and appliance space, with a door leading out to yet another terrace. It is very unusual to see an extension like this blending with such a period property, but it works ever so well. Staircases are found either end of the older part of the house. Taking the one from the drawing room, a very useful cloakroom is found, before taking the stairs to the first floor. The first bedroom on this side is a wonderful room with plenty of honeyed oak, exposed beams and an ensuite bathroom with a walk-in electric shower and separate bath. This room has a double aspect, enjoying views to the south and east. Off the small landing, paddle steps lead to a boarded attic space with light, power and heating. A door also opens into the main bedroom which has a wonderful, planked flooring, high ceiling with an incredible grapevine frieze and plenty of room for free standing furniture. A few steps lead down into a stylish ensuite. From here, the main landing leads to a second set of paddle steps up to a further carpeted attic room, and further accommodation. There is a contemporary shower room and two further bedrooms overlooking the front, one of which is understood to have been consecrated as a small chapel by the Bishop of Wells in 1710 as outlined in the records of the Church of Exbourne. Before heading down the second set of stairs, you come to the galleried library/ music room and study formed from the extension. It is an extraordinary space, full of light with views over the gardens and down to the river. In former years this was all used as a main bedroom with ensuite, but this works very well for our current client as a quiet, reflective space, yet still connected to the family room downstairs via the gallery. DAIRY BARN This former dairy provides for open plan living downstairs, with wood flooring, a modern log burner at the raised sitting room end and at the other end a well appointed kitchen with bistro bar makes a sociable casual entertaining area. A wrought iron spiral staircase leads to a galleried landing with bedrooms at either end. One is a good double with a modern ensuite shower room. The other is significantly larger, currently set up with both bunks and a double bed and has its own ensuite bathroom. There is parking outside and the adjacent former stables provide storage. DANS BARN For someone who loves the use of wood and exposed beams and peg frames and open plan living, this serves it up in bucketfuls. Downstairs there is a modern shower room, freestanding kitchen, space for a table and chairs and space for sofas and chairs to relax and admire the outside, but also to admire the magnificent work that has gone into creating this building. The first floor is mezzanine living, again open plan with two sleeping areas bisected by the stairs and gallery. There is parking outside, as well as decking overlooking the orchards to the woodland beyond. COB BARN This sits beside the Dairy Barn and has cart doors on either side, wonderful timber trusses and further external storage. A more modern agricultural barn offers tremendous scope for a number of uses, previously having loose boxes. Doors are found at either end and power and light are connected. A manège sits adjacent to the barn. It is currently used as a children’s play area. Opposite, a small track leads to 4 acres of level paddocks, once used for grazing horses and currently for grazing sheep. FISHING Beer Farm owns the double bank fishing rights on the River Okement, as far as Monkokehampton Weir. It contains a series of pools, attracting salmon, sea trout and wild brown trout. GARDENS and GROUNDS Wandering through these is almost like being in your own private parklands with large swathes of lawn, mature shrubs, plants, trees, hedgerows, rockery, pond, pasture and orchard, all with the sound of the River Okement running along one side. Double bank fishing rights run for about 500 yards down to Monkokehampton Weir. Everywhere you look, there is a vista to enjoy. The immense terrace that runs around two sides of the house allows for large parties and al fresco entertaining in the warmer months. A slope leads up to the kitchen gardens with over a dozen raised beds, a greenhouse with water, electricity and lighting, a large fruit cage, a 50 ft polytunnel and garden sheds. So for someone looking to grow and eat their own produce and enjoy the good life that growing your own food can provide, this will take a lot of beating. A magnificent 100 year old olive tree with twisted and gnarled trunk leads to a curving 20m long wisteria arbour and strategically at the end is a bench to just sit and listen to nature and the sounds of tumbling water. Between the drive and the river is a productive orchard with beehives. The overall private and natural setting of this particular home cannot be over-emphasised. Any owner will feel privileged to own this little part of Devonian tranquillity. SERVICES Mains water, electricity, oil fired heating to the main house and to Dairy Barn. Electric heating to Dans Barn. Drainage to a modern treatment plant. LPG for gas hob and fires. Agents note. There is an existing historical indemnity insurance in perpetuity to cover the change of use of the barns from agricultural to residential. The modern agricultural barn has a traditional asbestos cement roofing which is not uncommon for this type of building.

Hadrians House - A purpose-built equestrian residence of rare calibre, combining professional-grade facilities with refined modern country living. Constructed in 2015 with a clear brief—create a high-performance equestrian facility without compromising on residential quality—Hadrian’s House delivers on both fronts with precision. Set within approximately 7.4 acres, the property is discreetly positioned behind electric gates, offering privacy while remaining on the edge of a well-connected village. From the outset, the tone is established: natural materials, oak detailing, and a restrained palette create a modern farmhouse aesthetic that feels both considered and functional. This is not a cosmetic nod to country living—it is designed for it. The House The ground floor is anchored by a wide entrance hall, finished with oak flooring that runs consistently throughout, reinforcing the sense of cohesion. A bespoke oak staircase with integrated storage sets a practical tone early. The kitchen is the core of the house—bespoke, hand-painted solid wood cabinetry by Woodstyle, topped with black granite. It is properly specified rather than styled: Belfast sink, Neff appliances, wine fridge, and integrated timber wine storage within the island. The Aga is gas-fired with an electric companion, providing five ovens, multiple hobs, and flexibility that suits both day-to-day use and larger-scale entertaining. This space flows into a dining area and onward into a striking oak-framed living area. Extensive glazing wraps the elevation, pulling in natural light and framing uninterrupted views across the paddocks, critically, maintaining constant visual connection to the land and horses. A side access door leads directly to the patio, reinforcing the indoor-outdoor relationship. A secondary lounge offers contrast, more enclosed, intentionally quieter, with a contemporary gas fire and direct access to the patio. Glazed doors connect through to a formal dining room, allowing the layout to flex between open-plan entertaining and more defined spaces. The supporting accommodation is well judged: a fully fitted utility/laundry room with matching cabinetry, a ground floor shower room, and a boiler/drying room designed specifically for country use - wet coats, boots, and kit are clearly anticipated. A stable-style external door reinforces this as a working entrance. A study to the rear provides additional flexibility. This space is currently an office, but equally viable as a fourth bedroom, snug, or hobby space. First Floor The upper floor continues the same disciplined approach to materials and finish, with underfloor heating throughout. Three bedrooms are arranged to maximise light and outlook. The principal suite breathtaking. Vaulted ceilings, exposed oak structure, and a glazed gable end create a space that feels closer to a boutique retreat than a conventional bedroom. A dedicated dressing room and a high-spec ensuite features porcelain tiling and a large walk-in shower which complete this luxury suite. A second bedroom also benefits from ensuite facilities, while the family bathroom is centred around a freestanding bath, finished in a neutral, durable palette. Equestrian Facilities This is where Hadrian’s House separates itself from the majority of lifestyle properties. The equestrian offering is not an add-on—it is the primary asset, executed to a standard that supports serious use. 7.4 acres, intelligently divided into rotational paddocks Outdoor arena (50m x 30m) with premium sand and rubber surface Indoor arena (18m x 30m) with mirrors and full lighting—usable year-round Canter track/gallop running along the boundary, linking upper paddocks All-weather turnout areas adjacent to the indoor arena Horse walker (by separate negotiation)The stable block is equally well specified: 8 full stables plus additional storage stable Rubber matting to floors and walls throughout Solarium for muscle recovery and conditioning (by separate negotiation) Dedicated wash bay with hot and cold water Central cross-tie areas with excellent lighting Integrated kitchen, seating, and laundry area for day-to-day yard management First-floor tack room and rug storageOperational flow has been considered. Movement between arenas, turnout, stabling, and storage is efficient, which matters if this is being used at scale or professionally. A large gravel yard provides ample space for wagons, trailers, and machinery, with straightforward access and turning. Additional Accommodation & Leisure Across the yard, a covered area provides parking for two vehicles. Above, a self-contained studio apartment offers genuine ancillary accommodation—well-finished with oak flooring, open-plan living/sleeping space, fitted kitchen, and shower room. This is suitable for staff, guests, or as a dedicated office separate from the main house. Closer to the house, a garden room has been configured as a leisure space with bar and sauna. Adjacent is a covered patio with hot tub, positioned to take advantage of the south-facing orientation and uninterrupted views across the land. Location – Kirkandrews-on-Eden Kirkandrews-on-Eden offers a rare combination of accessible countryside and authentic rural living. Surrounded by a collection of well-regarded villages, the area is known for its excellent country pubs, traditional inns, and quality local butchers, delivering the kind of day-to-day lifestyle that buyers at this level actively look for, not just scenery. Positioned just a short drive from Carlisle, the property benefits from immediate access to a comprehensive range of amenities, schooling, and services, alongside excellent transport links via the M6 and mainline rail connections to London and Glasgow. For those drawn to the outdoors, the setting is particularly strong. The property lies along the route of Hadrian’s Wall Path, allowing direct access to miles of established walking routes straight from the doorstep. The area provides quiet lanes and open countryside ideal for hacking, while both the Lake District National Park and the Cumbrian coastline are within easy reach—offering a diverse mix of landscapes from fells and lakes to open beaches. This is a location that delivers not just on convenience, but on lifestyle—particularly for buyers prioritising space, access to the outdoors, and a strong sense of place. Summary Hadrian’s House is not a compromised lifestyle purchase. It is a properly executed equestrian property where the infrastructure justifies the headline. If the buyer’s priority is horses—training, conditioning, or small-scale professional use—this will outperform the majority of comparable offerings. The house supports that use case without dilution, delivering a level of finish and comfort that aligns with the quality of the yard.

Bespoke and handcrafted by local designers Village Green, the kitchen is finished in Farrow & Ball's Pantalon with accents of Fruit Fool, set against softly toned Setting Plaster walls.

Covered access from the kitchen connects to the double garage a rarity at this central address, and a detail that will be immediately appreciated. On the first floor, the principal suite extends across the full width of the house. Exposed original floorboards, an inglenook fireplace and a refined central partition wall which doubles as an architectural headboard while concealing generous storage give the room both warmth and character.

A generous adjoining storage room adds further everyday practicality. Outside, the rooftop garden offers an elevated and genuinely private retreat a rare thing in a city-centre setting. Framed by Corten weathering steel planters, the space balance’s structure, texture and softness with views across the city.

Individual architect designed home in a charming village with a generous southwest facing garden.

The reception hall provides a dramatic first impression with its vaulted ceiling, bespoke oak staircase, galleried landing, and bifold doors looking out to the rear garden and open views beyond. A cloakroom and cloaks area offer convenient facilities and storage for guests and occupants. Perfect for formal dining and entertaining, this space can also serve as additional living space for busy families. The generous kitchen/breakfast room shares garden views through an oversized picture window and glazed doors that open onto the rear terrace. It features luxurious stonework surfaces, a central island, and high-end integrated appliances. The large utility room is ideal for dog owners and outdoor enthusiasts, providing a practical laundry space. The large sitting room, bathed in light through full-height glazing, offers a more intimate and private space. The study is perfect for home working but is also large enough to serve as a snug or playroom. A ground floor guest suite bedroom with a walk-in wardrobe and en suite completes the ground floor, adding flexibility and futureproofing. Upstairs, the principal bedroom is particularly special, boasting a vaulted ceiling that extends over a balcony with apex-height glazing. An en suite and walk-in wardrobe create the feel of a luxurious hotel room. The second bedroom also has an en suite, while the third and fourth bedrooms share a family bathroom. Outside, the landscaped rear garden backs onto open countryside. Large lawns are surrounded by well-stocked borders, and the timber cabin would make an excellent gym, hobby space, or study. At the front, the gated drive opens onto ample parking and turning space, providing access to a double oak framed cart lodge. Seller Insight The development of the property was born out of the fact we simply couldn't' find the house we were looking for, says the owner. We'd been hunting for one that offered energy efficiency, light and comfort but were unable to find anything that ticked all the boxes. Therefore, we decided to build our own, and ultimately, we were able to create a really exceptional family home, one that has everything we wanted: five-bedrooms, five luxurious bathrooms, lots of light, lots of space to lavishly entertain our family both children and grandchildren and the eco efficiency that had been lacking in the many houses we'd previously viewed. We enlisted the help of Matt Lowther of Workshop76, a fantastic local architect who designed and project managed the house build. He took on board all of our wants and ideas and created a really stunning design for the house. It has been built on a rock-solid foundation with thirty-two piles to support the two apex wings, and also the atrium and galleried landing that connect them. It's incredibly well insulated and therefore has an EPC rating of A, and we installed an air source heat pump, meaning the energy consumption for such a big house is relatively low. The large Rationel aluminum windows and glazed doors flood the rooms with natural light, and the open layout creates a fantastic feeling of space. Standout features for us are the open-plan kitchen and living area, a very sociable space, and the real hub of the house, and we also love the huge and very luxurious master suite, which has sliding doors that open out onto a really large balcony, where we've spent many an evening with friends having a glass of wine and watching the sun go down. A combination of sliding patio doors and bi-fold doors have been added to create a really nice sense of connection between inside and out, and we have a beautifully manicured south-facing garden with space for relaxing and entertaining. The flowers are calming pinks, purples and reds, and there is a vegetable patch at the back. We also have a log cabin with power and lighting that offers children a place to play, and a shed that provides plenty of space for storage. We will be sorry to leave this beautiful house and indeed the village, but we need to relocate for family reasons. We will miss the absolute comfort and quietness that the house offers, but also the community within Eltisley who have embraced us as a 'family' so much so that we were told they do not want us to move! We've loved socialising at the social club and have formed a loving relationship with most of the villagers. It will definitely be a wrench to leave. Village information Eltisley is a charming village with a picturesque green with a cricket club established in 1854, thatched pavilion with bar, 13th century parish church, primary school, and popular public house/restaurant The Eltisley. Cambourne, approximately 3 miles to the east, offers an excellent range of shopping facilities including a supermarket, banking facilities, GP/dental/pharmacy facilities and a selection of cafes and restaurants. Transport Eltisley is situated approximately 5 miles east of St Neots and 12 miles west of Cambridge and a short drive to the A428 provides easy access to the A1 and A14 with links to the wider national motorway network. The proposed A428 road improvements will divert much of the existing traffic away from the village and will be a real bonus for the area as well as improving local journey times. The short drive to St Neots railway station provides fast links into London King's Cross in under an hour and links to the North via Peterborough.

Vendor Insight When did you first find this home, what first drew you to it, and what was it that instantly captured your heart? “We were already living in Birkdale and knew we wanted to stay here. We wanted a detached house that we could make into a home. This house was in need of modernisation but we could see the potential.” Tell us a little about the home’s history. Have you made any changes or additions that you feel have enhanced its character or functionality? “We set about a complete renovation but tried to be sympathetic to the age of the house and to retain original features. It feels very warm and welcoming when returning home. Although it’s large, it still feels homely. It is a victorian villa which has had many incarnations over the years but we wanted to return it to a family home adapted for modern living whilst retaining the period aesthetic and character.” Which spaces do you find yourself gravitating to most, and why? “We spend most of our time in the kitchen/living area which is light and airy due to the orangery but with a cosy snug. We like to sit here and watch the birds in the garden. We have the sun on the back of the house all afternoon and in the summer we open the french doors to enjoy the garden. The property feels most magical at Christmas. Spacious rooms and high ceilings mean we can have a large tree and Christmas dinner in the formal dining room feels special.” For families, what do you feel makes this such a wonderful place to raise children? “This is a great place to raise children because of the close proximity of local amenities including Victoria Park and Southport Beach. There is also a selection of schools around the Southport area. The grounds of the property are completely enclosed so very safe for young children.” How would you describe the local community and the lifestyle on offer? “We are only a 10-15 minute walk into Southport which has a number of shops, supermarkets and some good restaurants. Birkdale village is a similar distance and offers a choice of bars, restaurants and coffee shops.” What kinds of memories have been created here? Celebrations, milestones, or quiet moments that you’ll always cherish? “We have created lots of happy memories here but have particularly enjoyed watching our grandson enjoy the space and the swimming pool.” What do you think the next owners will fall in love with most? “I think the next owners will enjoy the location of the property. The walled garden and set back from the road position makes it feel very private but it is only minutes from all amenities. I think a family with children would feel most at home here and there is enough room for everyone to have their own space as they get older.” Additional Information Services: Mains electricity, gas, drainage and water.
