“The house was in good condition when we bought it,” continues Philip, “but was in need of modernisation, and so we’ve redecorated throughout, upgraded both the
heating and hot water system, created a lovely
en suite and renovated the family bathroom.”

“My wife was very keen for the house to be returned to its former glory, and so the décor is as close to the period of
the house as we could get it, and extremely tasteful. Everyone says
how elegant it looks. The layout of the house is very traditional,
which we like,” says Philip, “and there are lots of lovely period
features dotted here and there.”

annex
“Just across the courtyard we have Joseph’s Lodge,” continues Philip, “which is a self contained, one bedroom annex above the double garage. The garages used
to be stabling and a carriage house, and Joseph
was the carriage man who lived above, hence
the name. It was in a completely dilapidated
state when we came here, but we’ve renovated
throughout and it’s now an absolutely beautiful
space, and very useful.”
“As well as the courtyard, which is handy for
parking, we also have a lovely garden,” says
Philip. “It’s raised and so we can see right over
the town. The previous owner was a keen
gardener, so it was nicely established, and it’s a
real suntrap so a very nice place to sit out during
the summer.”
