DESCRIPTION AND CONSTRUCTION
Faith is one of three terraced cottages (the others being Hope & Charity) which have, over the years, been restored to provide attractive accommodation, retaining much of the original charm & character. Faith has facing brick elevations & has been cleverly adapted on the ground floor (by the present owners) to provide a feature kitchen/breakfast room with vaulted ceiling. There are feature fireplaces in both ground floor reception rooms, a modern shower room on the first floor plus 2 good size double bedrooms. The property also has the benefit of substantial off road parking plus a good size rear garden which is well enclosed.

In our opinion, to fully appreciate the size & presentation of the property, an internal viewing is strongly recommended.

Poulner infant & junior schools, Tesco’s convenience stores & sub-post office, in addition to other shopping facilities, plus a local dentist & vet.
