Freistehendes Haus Mit 4 Schlafzimmern Zum Verkauf In Southborough

What the Owners Sayy: When we first saw this cottage about five years ago, we instantly fell in love with it and named it ‘Pixie Cottage’ and thought it looked just like a gingerbread house. It was the character of the house and the beautiful gardens that we adore and are very sad to be leaving but we need to move for health reasons. The cottage is very conveniently located only half a mile from the centre of Southborough with its 75 acre Common providing wonderful opportunities for walks and cycle rides.
