Growing families, multi-generational living, or those looking for income opportunities or business space; there is ample space and options to adapt as required. Providing generous living areas and up to 6 bedrooms over 2 floors, including a fabulous principal suite with triple aspect views, served by 5 bathrooms.

The original stable block is currently configured as a gym, workshop and additional garaging, but could easily be utilised as stabling if required as stable doors are in place and the building has been re-constructed to suitable dimensions for horses. This building was originally designed by an architect as a 3 bedroom self-contained annex, and has been built to full domestic property regulations with plumbing etc in place for easy conversion, subject to planning consents.

Set back behind electric gates and a substantial driveway, the house sits centrally within beautifully landscaped gardens. To the southern aspect, a large walled courtyard creates the perfect area for dining and entertaining, focussed on a flagged centrepiece with a wisteria-draped pergola and a raised pond. This opens onto expansive lawns with mature trees, a summerhouse and fire pit, a productive kitchen garden, an orchard, and leading to a paddock of approx. 4 acres containing a large wildlife/swimming pond. The plot is bordered by mature hedging and adjoins neighbouring farmland, providing a wonderfully peaceful and private backdrop.
