Rauch Cottage, 49 High Street is a beautifully presented Victorian family home of character, situated within a Conservation Area in this sought after village. This bright, charming and stylishly appointed property was built in 1850 with later additions, with accommodation arranged over three floors and character feel cleverly combined with contemporary styling to provide ideal areas for entertaining and family living.
