Built by the National Coal Board (NCB) in the 1890's for a high-ranking manager the property remained in the hands of the NCB until the late 1960's when it became a private residence for a local businessman.

A substantial property residing in over an acre of its own grounds with various out-buildings and two large garages. The gardens have been lavishly landscaped to the highest standard, with the main garden housing a stone built folly for relaxation - in the contained hot tub and showers - and entertainment. During the evening the gardens and grounds can be fully illuminated.

The property still has its original water well; in its day a maid would have hand-pumped water to the storage chambers on the top floor of the houses to satisfy the occupants.

Over the past two and a half years this property has been totally renovated to a very high standard retaining many original features. The property has fullcentral heating with gas boilers; one on the ground floor and the second on the top floor. There are real log/coal fires in the two main reception rooms with wooden carved surrounds.

The main kitchen was hand-crafted using pippin oak with solid granite worktops and a double Belfast sink, intergrated dishwasher and large fridge/freezer. In addition there is also a large high quality cooking stove.

The house is fully double-glazed apart from the main staircase/landing window, this was not replaced due to its colour lead glass work.
