A deeply impressive 1930s residence of enormous proportions and fine traditional character, offering eight bedrooms, four reception rooms and set in a plot of well over two acres of delightful mature gardens which includes a swimming pool and leisure building. This substantial family home is set in the tranquil village setting of Stradishall. "It was the peacefulness of the area that first attracted us to the property," says Jean, "there are eight bedrooms and approximately three acres of land, and the house itself is very large; we can't fault it!""You feel so safe in the house," she continues, "When my husband works away, I can stay in the house on my own and feel completely comfortable." "We live in a close of 10 houses and it is such a friendly environment; if you ever needed anything, someone here will be willing to help, all you have to do is ask. There is a Residents Association; we all put money in to save for a rainy day � last year the private road we share needed repairs so we all chipped in to help." The garden is just as important as the house. "If it isn't raining you will find us in the garden," says Jean, "we have the swimming pool, fruit trees (which we refer to as the orchard), some beautiful flower beds, and a vegetable garden. I grow anything and everything, from carrots, leeks and parsnips, to onions and peas".The current owners have lived in this delightful home for 28 years and are regrettably downsizing. Their four children have many happy memories of growing up in the house and they still have yearly pool parties on their birthdays. "We will be sad to leave," says Jean. "It's been a great place to entertain and have fun with the family." This has been a warm and loving family home for our clients for almost three decades and they leave behind their loving neighbours and wonderful memories, safe in the knowledge that the next owners are sure to enjoy the house and its grounds just as much as they have done.A deeply impressive 1930's residence of enormous, elegant proportions and fine traditional character, originally built for an officer of former RAF Stradishall and set in a plot of well over two acres of delightful mature gardens.
