The heart of the home is the stunning kitchen, designed as a sociable space with a breakfast area, casual dining, and a relaxed living area. Complementing this, the property boasts three formal reception rooms, a study, and a delightful garden room.
A standout feature of this remarkable home is the self-contained annex, offering exceptional flexibility.

On the first floor, the elegant master bedroom benefits from an ensuite bathroom and direct access to an adjoining bedroom, which serves as a spacious dressing room. Two further well-proportioned bedrooms and a family bathroom complete this level. Ascending to the second floor, a generous landing leads to two additional double bedrooms, both featuring ensuite bathrooms, as well as a versatile living area.
Set within a magnificent 0.6-acre plot, the grounds of Longton are simply breathtaking. Expansive lawned gardens, adorned with mature trees, shrubs, and well-stocked borders, create a serene and private retreat. Extensive parking leads to a detached double garage, ensuring practicality alongside elegance.
A true showcase of period charm, Longton seamlessly blends classic architectural features with a warm and inviting interior. Offered for sale for the first time in nearly 30 years, this exceptional family home must be viewed to be fully appreciated.

  • Gross yield — Annual rent as % of purchase price (no costs).
  • Cost-to-rent — Price ÷ annual rent (from OpenRent comparables). Under 14× = strong, 14–16× = acceptable, 17×+ = compressed.
