OWNERS INSIGHT
"We fell in love with the house as soon as we walked through the door, literally shedding a tear or two on the thought of making it our family home, and it really has been a very emotional decision to sell. The house is perfect for our family needs, and with two young children and working from home it would give us the space to grow, but we are finding with our busy lives a greater draw to be closer to our parents. The previous owners were here over 40 years, and we can honestly say Lawn Close is a lovely cul-de-sac with wonderful neighbours. The house, a true home in every sense of the word"
