Hide AdThe owner says: “We fell in love with the building as soon as we saw it and knew we had to save it.
“It was a massive project and took more than three years to complete. We were determined to keep any existing features that remained but knew that in order to convert it into a family home, we needed to be creative as well as sympathetic to the original building.”
It really is a stunning space which is perfect for hosting large family gatherings, dinner evenings and parties, especially being able to end the evening using the bowling alley.
There is also an outside sun terrace which is perfect for spending those summer mornings having a cup of coffee and taking in the sea air.
