Our opinion
An elegant dwelling, perfectly reflecting the 19th century, which almost certainly owes its construction to the arrival, at this time, of the railway. Its untarnished decor, with its middle-class appearance, is warm and generous. Ideally situated in the town, it is easy to imagine a family moving in and wanting to take advantage of the many attractions of a medium-sized town labelled as a “Town and region of art and history”.
