A peaceful setting, a large garden and friendly owners contribute to the appeal of this Victorian terrace house, which overlooks the local bowling green. The decor is a blend of 19th and 20th century, with bold Victorian reds, pine floors and a period fireplace in the lounge, and a 1930s vibe in the three spacious bedrooms.
