SELLER INSIGHT - "When I first saw this house nearly fifteen years ago, I loved the fact that it was the biggest house in Crown Street. I liked the feel of the culde-sac and the way that it was so quiet yet also in the centre of town. The house is really versatile and I've configured it to suit my needs, using the top floor as a living room. I will genuinely miss my great neighbours. Lots of them have lived here for longer than I have so there's a lovely longstanding community."
Step Inside Situated on an attractive cul-de-sac full of bowfronted artisan cottages, richly toned wood doors, a soft colour scheme and decorative period fireplaces provide an elegant and consistent design theme, while luxurious bathrooms, a home office and modern recessed lighting are just some of the features which have been incorporated with creativity and imagination.
