Description
Elliot Heath are pleased to be able to offer this delightful family home that has been in the same family ownership since it was originally constructed in 1983. The architects at the time were instructed to design a home that sat naturally into the landscape and to draw upon the influences of Frank Lloyd Wright who was renowned for his organic architecture. The result is a home that has had little change or alteration since its conception and therefore provides the new owner with a genuine home that has been a joy to live in and one that the present family owner is reluctantly having to move on from. With much potential for further development and alteration the property in brief comprises, generous reception hall with full hight vaulted ceiling, triple aspect lounge, double aspect dining room, kitchen/breakfast room, utility room, shower room, landing four generous bedrooms, family bathroom. Gardens that extend to approximately 1.9 acres overall together with an integral double garage. For further details or an appointment to view before its general release then please contact Elliot Heath on .
