OWNERS' COMMENT "We have had a really wonderful time in our 51 years here, life has been just superb. With great schools to bring up our children, the old railway line at the top of South Lane is a wonderful dog walk and there are numerous paths to walk in the area along with the Canal at Ash Vale. There are lots of garden birds to watch and lovely neighbours."

AGENT'S COMMENT "This 1938 house is in a really nice quiet location, with loads of parking and potential to extend, and it's within walking distance of Ash and all of the major road links and shops. It's such a rare opportunity as it hasn't been on the market for fifty one years - which is how long the owners have been there."
