What We Think at the Zoe Napier Group
We love this impressive family home and the history of this past doctor’s surgery and one family ownership for almost one hundred years. Enjoying the convenience of a village centre location, but in a secluded set back position this property should appeal to a buyer seeking village tranquillity plus the added benefit of commuting access to London.
What our Owners Say
