Seller Insight

"We fell in love with this house as soon as we saw it, " say the current owners of The Willows. "The unique design of the building is simply stunning, with its bespoke brickwork and low roofline creating an unusual and very appealing aesthetic. The idyllic location of the property drew us to it, too, set in a large riverside plot overlooking the surrounding fields."

"The house was newly built when we bought it, and we liked the idea of being the first people to live in it, " the owners continue. "This also gave us the opportunity to put our own stamp on the property, which we have achieved by landscaping the gardens to make the most of the outdoor space, including the planting of now well established greenery. The garden is home to abundant wildlife, too, with a family of deer regularly wandering into the garden from the fields at night, and squirrels running around by day. The plot is unusually large for a new build, so there is plenty of space for our grandchildren to run around. It is a real sun trap, too, with the light moving round from the front of the house in the morning, to the sun room on the side of the house in the afternoon and the back garden in the late afternoon and evening. There are various seating areas in which to relax or spend time outdoors with family and friends, including a patio area for al fresco dining and a decking area down by the river."

Indeed, this is the perfect property for everyday life and entertaining alike. "We have bounteous space both indoors and out, " say the owners. "The large lounge area is a very sociable space for when the family come round to stay, and we have hosted countless gatherings in the garden
with the patio doors wide open, music playing and everyone enjoying the views."

The local area has much to recommend it, too. "Despite the rural setting of the property, we have everything we need right on our doorstep, " say the owners. "Transport links are fantastic, whether by road or rail. We are only 5 minutes from the train station, so can be in central London in just 40 minutes."
