Five bedrooms serviced by three bathrooms are arranged over the ground and lower ground floor. It should be noted that the lower ground floor benefits from electric underfloor heating throughout. Set within its gardens and grounds are a range of outbuildings. A large veranda overlooks the pond where there is a detached ‘Pond House’ comprising two large rooms with one currently used as a workshop and store. A detached barn with a two bay carport and garage with studio accommodation above comprising a fully fitted kitchenette, bathroom and double bedroom provides the perfect space for guest accommodation. A gated stable block with stabling for six horses and a tack room compliments the large grounds of approximately 9 acres with an exciting prospect for any discerning equestrians.
