A Grade II listed 18th century four double bedroom house with over 2,000 sq. ft. of accommodation, in the village of Preston. The Dower House is believed to date from 1742 and was once part of the Temple Dinsley estate where the manor house was rebuilt in 1714. Historically, the property was used as accommodation for manor house staff and then staff of Princess Helena College when this moved to the site in the 1930s. In 1910, The Dower House was divided into two cottages and it has now been converted into six homes.
The specifications of the conversion include quartz and stone worktops and Bosch fitted appliances in the kitchen/dining room, and metro tiles and a shaver point in the bath and shower rooms. There are also brushed steel sockets and switches, gas central heating, and an Indian sandstone patio and path.
Access to all the homes is via electric gates, with a driveway and two parking spaces for each home. There is also visitor parking and storage sheds for each property.
