3 bed House - Semi-Detached for Sale

A most attractive ragstone cottage, located in the sought-after village of Crockham Hill, enjoying a picturesque rural outlook over adjacent fields frequently dotted with grazing sheep. Dating originally to the 1840s and built by the stonemasons constructing nearby Holy Trinity Church, this charming property has been the subject of full-scale renovation and enlargement in recent years to create a thoroughly modern home providing truly versatile, family-friendly accommodation.
