OWNER INSIGHT
"Broadacres has been in our family for about 25 years and holds so many happy memories for me - picking blackberries, helping my grandparents in the allotment and greenhouses, and arriving to the smell of Nan’s pies made with apples from the trees by the patio. It offered everything they dreamed of: peace, quiet, stunning views and a mature garden with palm trees and a pool. Though it now needs some love, its character, charm and potential are ready for a new family to enjoy."
