840 Thornton Road, Thornton

DESCRIPTION Built in 1863, originally as a country inn run by the Thwaites family- this beautiful property has to be viewed to be appreciated. The property remained a hostelry until the late 1930's when it changed to a residential property and became someone's home for the first time. The current owners have lovingly restored and updated many of the original features whilst modernising without taking away the houses' charm and splendour.
