I'm a big fan of Egerton and this house is in one of my favourite spots -- Alex Davies, Managing Director

Modern facilities include a dual zone oil fired central heating system, a water softener, re-wiring during renovations around 14 years ago.
In addition to a spectacular location with far reaching views, the house benefits from enchanting and manageable gardens and a wonderful stretch of meadow with wildflowers and fruit trees.
