"After 27 years, we are reluctantly putting our much-loved home on the market. This house has given us everything we could have wished for

---

a peaceful retreat where we have always valued our privacy, whilst never being far from the things that make everyday life a pleasure.

We particularly love the outside areas the house has, especially the upstairs balcony. There are numerous and varied dog walks straight from the door, including the Loose Valley, Salts Wood and the Quarries. When it’s time to socialise, a great choice of pubs and coffee shops are just a short walk away.

We hope the next owners will love it here as much as we have"
