Vendor's Comments -

"This was our family home for many years, we were friends with so many of the neighbours. The large garden was great for our young children, and the location was ideal, to allow us to walk the Gloucester Road and also to schools and play groups. It is a beautiful house with lovely original features and large bright rooms.”
