OWNER INSIGHT “22 Abbey Road was the house we bought together a year or so before our wedding. We renovated it from top to bottom, inside and out to make a light and airy home that was the perfect spot to start our married life. We have so many happy memories of this home: from relaxing in the sun filled walled garden, reading or watching TV in the cozy lounge or making the most of the easy walk to the local beaches.”
