Both the large patio and spacious terrace which hangs over the River Nene offer the perfect setting for relaxing, entertaining and al-fresco dining. Forming part of the 4 acre plot is a 2 acre paddock, making it ideal for those with equestrian interests or a desire for additional space to enjoy outdoor pursuits. The overall sense of space, privacy and connection to nature is truly unparalleled.
