Seller's Insight - "We built Calcott House to our own specification 25 years ago and have thoroughly enjoyed our time here. We love the tranquillity of the location and the beautiful surroundings and feel the house would be well suited for a family looking for a country lifestyle within an active local community near to good schools.
Our favourite room in the house would have to be the Sun Room where we spend a lot of our time. However we are most proud of the garden as we have completely transformed it from a field to the lovely varied garden it is today.
We have many happy memories from our time here including hosting our son`s wedding and other events for family and friends. We hope that the next owner will enjoy it as much as we have.”
