A gate at the bottom of the garden opens onto a twitten, providing easy access to Claremont School and Farmcombe Road open space, ideal for dog walking. The Julian Hewitt Park is also within easy reach via Cavendish Drive (approximately 0.2 miles).

I love the kitchen/dining/family room here, it's fun, stylish and really sociable, with lots of care and thought having gone into the design of this lovely home. The location is brilliant for families, welcoming, easy and convenient.
