A time capsule of domestic life 

Once prolific on the outskirts of towns and cities, this style of house, sited on prime commercial land, is rapidly diminishing as they are knocked down or turned into flats, hospitals, offices and schools. The house at Sunnycroft offers you the opportunity to explore a rare survivor, encroached on all sides by modern housing estates.
