Thorpe St Andrew

This fine property, located in a secluded and hidden location, provides a wonderful country feel with all the benefits of being a stone's throw from the city. Full of character, with open fireplaces, picture rails, stripped wooden flooring and cornicing. A fine atmospheric dining room is perfect for entertaining and access direct onto the south facing terrace. A good sized sitting room and well equipped kitchen breakfast room complete the ground floor. The first floor provides four bedrooms and a family bathroom.

An outstanding feature has to be the extremely well landscaped south facing garden. A wonderful entertaining terrace with a superb leafy back drop. Clipped box hedging and mature shrubs, with spring bringing cherry blossom, wisteria and a pretty magnolia.

The sweeping lawn draws you down to a secret seating area within a woodland themed setting. To the front, again, a mature well planted garden with lawn, providing privacy, parking and a covered gated seating area to the side. The local area enjoys an abundance of wildlife, all on your doorstep.
