Our Agent's View

There s so much to love about this four-bedroom home, which combines traditional building techniques and decorating styles with all the perks of a relative new-build.The kitchen dining room is sociable and well-designed, making it ideal for both family life and for entertaining.As a developer, Fleur Homes is award-winning, well-respected and has a great reputation. Even when they re being sold on, like this one, they remain really sought-after and I doubt it will stay on the market for very long. Interested buyers will need to act quickly.
