DESCRIPTION

As sole agents we are delighted to present this charming period property which comes onto the market for the first time in many years. Castle House has been a much loved and cherished family home now offering immense potential for a new family to enjoy living in such an idyllic location. Over the years the owners have maintained Castle House to a high standard retaining many of the original period features. The Sitting Room and Dining Room are light and airy. The Kitchen/Breakfast Room is located to the rear of the property with a door leading to the Conservatory. There is also a charming Garden Room overlooking the rear. All the Bedrooms and Bathrooms are arranged on the first and second floors. In our opinion the gardens are a true feature of Castle House providing a perfect spacious environment for children to play. Through attractive wrought iron gates a second garden sits overlooking the slow moving river. Such a peaceful setting. We strongly recommend early viewing to fully appreciate all that Castle House has to offer, and more.
