Property Summary

Sitting in a secluded close, just seconds from the High Street, this beautiful Grade C-Listed three-bedroom stone, character house would make a wonderful family home, first time buy, or buy-to-let. Originally two houses, 129C and D have been tastefully combined to create one substantial family home on 3 floors with lots of original features such as the lovely curved staircase with wooden balustrades, the deep stone fireplace and small cellar.

With a shared garden close, and an additional private garden with wonderful views towards the magnificent building of St Lawrence Church, this lovely character house is a must see.
