Comment by Mark Johnson frics @ Baker Wynne and Wilson – Setting the scene.

The property was built in the 1920's to a Georgian symmetrical form in brick with rendered elevations under a principle tiled roof. The house itself has been extended and enhanced by the present owners so to create a lovely family home that has both scale and presence. Much thought has been given to retaining the character and charm of its period, whilst offering more flexible and superbly appointed accommodation. The programme of enlargement has been sensitively achieved with the introduction of a stunning kitchen/breakfast room open to a Clear View Garden Room, offering a contemporary light living space, complete with a five-oven aga. Externally the house has ample off-road parking to the front, a double garage and to the rear a superb garden, large terrace, and home office/garden room.

Your attention is particularly drawn to the recently constructed timber frame building with hydrotherapy pool, that uses the power of warm water, buoyancy, and massage jets to relieve pain, reduce stress, speed up workout recovery, and make movement easier.
