This LOVELY HOME forms part of a DELIGHTFUL SMALL CRESCENT with an interesting variety of styles and sizes of properties in a much sought after, prestigious part of West Park, and is set in a slightly elevated position providing WINDOW PRIVACY from the road, as well as having the advantage of NO OTHER PROPERTIES IMMEDIATELY DIRECTLY FACING the front or rear elevation.
