*PRIVATE, STRICTLY NO ENTRY WITHOUT APPOINTMENT*
A rare opportunity to acquire four two bedroom Victorian cottages currently used as almshouses.
The cottages were built in 1895 and retain many of the original features including fireplaces. Whilst there has been some internal modernization, they would lend themselves to internal refurbishment.
