The property has been a happy family home for many years and here is what the owners have had to say:

Loads of light and space - these features drew us to this house in 2014. During the time we've lived in this house, we poured a lot of love, time and energy into transforming it into a sumptuous home surrounded by lush gardens. This allowed us to savour and enjoy every moment of our life in our home.

But it's now time for another family to enjoy the things we love about this house:
•the amount of natural light that fills this house which is a tonic for the soul especially during stressful or cold days
•the amount of space both indoors and outdoors which enabled us to socialise and host large parties whatever the season
•the variety of established trees and shrubs we planted in the front and back gardens which provided us with beautiful flowers for the house
•spacious bedrooms and an outdoor office to escape to when you need privacy.

Our home is on a quiet residential street, which is filled with the chatter and laughter of little kids during the school term as they make their way up the street to Kilmorie Primary School, rated Good by Ofsted, or to the nearby kindergarten.
