Do you have a question about this home or the local area?
Fact, fiction, you name it, The Bibliophile is likely to have it. Filled with books (both in the living room and bedroom), this home is for all the book lovers out there.

Complete with plenty of cosy nooks to kick back and read a book, it’s also a home that’s brimming with natural light and a warm, welcoming home away from home atmosphere.
