What The Owner Says
'When we bought this house 21 years ago we were told it had been a happy house to live in and that has proved to be true for ourselves. We have built on that literally by further developing 'Hollybank' into something we feel is quite unique, yet we have left room for the next family to even further develop the property if they so need.The location is beautiful, just like living in your own park. The things we will miss are looking from the bedroom onto the Beech trees and seeing the seasons pass and eating on the sunny patio which is perfect for entertaining friends and family.. The cellar room is an excellent drying room in the winter months.The house is totally private but still only 2.5 miles from the city centre and approx 1 mile from the motorway junction 17 on the M60. The local area has excellent schools to which our children walked to during our time here, Hollybank is a lovely house to come home to and I am sure it will be just the same for the next owners.
