We fell in love with this house the first time we saw it, and it has been a great family home ever since we moved in.The open-plan ground floor and garden have been perfect for hosting family Christmases and summer get-togethers. The views from every window make the space feel bright and open. In spring and summer, the garden comes alive, attracting a variety of birds. During the warmer months, we open the bifold doors to enjoy the garden, and in winter, the log burner keeps the house warm and cosy. The house is surrounded by farmland, with plenty of lovely country walks nearby. We re relocating due to work, but we ll be sad to leave. We re sure the next owners will enjoy it as much as we have.
