A Note from the Owner
We were captivated by how interesting and characterful this house was from first seeing it advertised, let alone first stepping foot inside. This house has allowed us to express ourselves and grow into our style as newly weds, young parents, now into full on family life. The attic floor has meant we have comfortably hosted friends and family on a regular basis without impact on our daily living. It’s been a house full of fun and visitors have gravitated towards us regularly as it is nothing short of magical when lit for Christmas as well as full of light all day long in the summer time. We have loved being so central to everything in town, never a dull moment and it was an amazing place to be on maternity leave and with young kids. We have made the most of the small outside space which is a fabulous sun trap during the middle of the day. We have simply come to a point where we want a different set up for our family needs but we were hard pressed to find something that gave us the same space and feeling as this special house. We know the right buyer will get exactly what we mean when they experience this house too.
