Its name has been taken from ancient wisterias to the front and rear of the property that adorn the outside with much of the original charm and character being retained to provide a flexible and adaptable family home. The current owners have been in residence for over 29 years and have maintained the property very well.

Open access from here leads into the dining room with a central beam and access through to the garden room at the rear of the property with attractive views to the gardens.

At the other end of the property is a quaint kitchen with a range of base and eye level timber cupboards with contrasting granite worktops including a deep Belfast sink unit.
