A Tastefully Appointed Step Back in Time
Restored, extended and modernised over the last few years, this grand, double fronted, 1890 built, brick Victorian home offers family living at its absolute best. With its original features beautifully restored in the front rooms of the home and subtly replicated in the rear extended section, this impressive home combines the ambiance of yesteryear with the conveniences of today. A tasteful colour palette and inspired choice of quality fittings contribute a warm and welcoming, contemporary layer to this gracious home.
