Sellers insight

"Along with a heavy heart at leaving Grantlands comes a joyful assurance knowing such a wonderful home and lifestyle awaits its new owners. From the first day our parents discovered this estate, turning off the high street into a subtle private driveway
granting access to this 19th-century house in all its glory, it was love at first sight.

For our mother, she finally found her dream home of period architecture, miraculously just as she had always envisioned, complete with gothic-style features that never failed to wow her visitors. For our father, it was the impressive garden ready to be a project. Plans were immediately put into action for a powered outbuilding and large patio to cater to long summer evenings with friends and family.

The polite community of the estate was always another appreciated asset, where a friendly chat or helpful hand was never far away. We can safely say our parents loved their time at 11A Grantlands.

Whether it was the wide gothic entrance, its enviable high ceilings, or soaking in the glorious agricultural
views, they relished its character and splendour, and we are sure whoever starts a new chapter here will find it every bit as special as it was for them.

Finally, if I may suggest, a post-Sunday lunch walk along the old Uffculme railway track offers a spectacular view of the Grantlands estate in all its grandeur!"
