When they walked up the tree lined drive and first saw the house, its wisteria covered façade offered an attractive and welcoming ambience. It was an

easy decision to buy, as the immense feeling of

warmth continued inside the house. The many

Arts and Crafts period features, and the large

reception rooms with their high ceilings, cornices

and picture rails combine to give the house its

very appealing quality.

The house is a much loved home, with the kitchen and the adjoining sun room, as its daily hub. A sociable space, it is where

the family gather for daily meals, with a view to the garden as a soft green

backdrop. The sunroom is perfect for relaxation and it is a constant pleasure to

sit with a cup of coffee or morning paper, and have the garden spread before

you. It is quiet and tranquil place to spend quality time. The two large, light and

airy sitting rooms have space for convivial gatherings of family and friends. The

original Coalbrookdale fireplace is a pleasing feature in the room reserved for

more formal entertaining, whilst the larger room is a family room. This is where

the family settle into the comfy sofas for an evening of TV viewing. If anyone feels

more active, the dining table converts into a snooker table; and the gas effect

fire creates a cosy winter glow.
