Clad in classic red brick, this farmhouse-style home looks smart in Marton. Located in a quiet cul-de-sac, the new residence is just what the retired occupants ordered. From the moment you step through the entrance (made with timber milled from the owners’ previous home) it’s obvious this place is special. Timber architraves and skirtings are a prominent detail, in keeping with the furniture on display. Wood also frames the windows and draws the eye as you journey through this beautifully constructed home. Three north-facing living areas soak up natural light and warmth. Gas central heating and a fireplace keep things toasty after the sun goes down. Outdoors, built-in gardens create lush and low-maintenance living spaces and mean there’s more time for relaxing. The large kitchen of the owners’ last home has been recreated here with a modern twist. Ample bench spaces and easy-access appliances promise everyday enjoyment. Three bedrooms and a large office allow room for live-in help should it be needed in future.
