IN SUMMARY
Location, in this pretty village, in a stunning valley with good road links makes it worth viewing alone. The house has amazing space and there is a definite stamp of quality on the fittings throughout. The current décor of rich colours in the reception areas suit the current owner’s style, we certainly liked it but some people may prefer a lighter touch however this is only a coat of paint away. The bathrooms are really FAB. The gardens are very well designed, it certainly shows a professional has worked some magic here and very much geared to low maintenance. I can imagine someone with a busy life finding this home a great place to enjoy and unwind after a hectic week.
