Full of local history, this detached property has a lovely granite facade with wooden windows having small pane sashes. The property was constructed by a Mr John Blight in the late 1850's and stands in lovely gardens being very well established with a profusion of bushes, fruit trees etc and must be considered a very important part of the house, especially being not far from the town centre.

It is worthy of note that in one room there is a lovely arched window. To the ground floor there is a hallway with a living room to the right and then a large second reception room (originally two rooms) to the left. Behind this is a dining room and the kitchen which was fitted in the early 80's and is a good example of Smallbone custom made units. To the side there is a laundry room with an extra wc. There are two lovely fireplaces (not currently in use) and these certainly enhance the features of the home. Double glazing is installed to the rear and side elevation and the property has electric storage radiators for the most part.
