What Our Seller Says...


"What I love about this house is its wonderfully peaceful location. Being situated on such a beautiful park offers additional outdoor space on your doorstep and I love that feeling of not being hemmed in. Working from home I get to sit and watch the world go by across the park from my desk and at lunchtime I often go and sit in the park with my dog and enjoy the sunshine. It is also just a 5 minute walk into town and 15 minutes to the train station so I have really been able to enjoy leaving my car behind."
