What we think at The Zoe Napier Group

This is a very rare find and perfect for those downsizing who still want space and character.  A high specification turnkey property set in a peaceful enclave of other beautiful homes, offering open plan luxury living with modern character. We think this is a hidden gem.

What the Owners Say

We have absolutely loved living here and appreciate the wonderful small community feel.  Over the years we have added to the high specification with our own exacting standards, and the open sunroom has been perfect for entertaining and family gatherings.
