When we first viewed the house prior to buying it, we fell in love with the character of the home and the gardens. After 25 happy years, our children have moved on and we have now decided to progress to the next chapter of our life and downsize. We will be very sorry to leave this home and its beautiful surroundings, but it is time for another owner to make very happy memories.
