What The Vendor Loves About Their Home
Having bought our family home in the early 1980's, the property required a lot of modernisation to suit our needs, however when driving around to find a suitable home we spotted this property and immediately fell in love with the chocolate box picture thatched cottage and its rural setting. Having enjoyed every moment of the peace and quiet this property offers, time has caught up and a move to something smaller is required. I love relaxing in the spacious lounges, I tend to use the larger one in the summer and the smaller one in the winter, so I can be by the large fireplace in the cooler months. Being an outdoors person the surrounding area is ideal for running or going for long walks across the open countryside. The house has changed how it has been used a lot over the years depending on how many of us were living in there at the time! I will truly miss my family home and have loved every bit of the forty years I have lived here, however now it is time for another custodian to live here and make it their own.
