There are a number of outbuildings including a detached two storey black and white timbered framed building which (subject to the relevant permissions being sought) will make for a wonderful office or annexe for a dependent relative or teenager.

The property is approached from the Suckley Road via driveway which extends to servicing one other property. The private parking for the property is situated to the left hand side of the house and further towards the front of the double garage. The front door for the property which is situated on the left hand side opens to the living accommodation which is in excess of 2,000 sq. ft. and benefits from oil fired central heating and double glazing. As previously mentioned the property offers huge potential for further development (subject to the relevant permissions being sought) but the accommodation itself is in need of some refurbishment and updating.

Extending off the conservatory is the useful Utility Room with separate Wet Room fitted with an electric shower and toilet. A door from the utility room gives access to the side carport. Situated in the centre of the house is the Lounge having doors opening to the conservatory and further double glazed window to front. This is an open space with an open wooden balustraded staircase rising to first floor and a focal point of which is the wood burning stove set into a feature fire surround with cupboards to sides. A glazed pedestrian door opens through to the formal Sitting Room which is a cosy dual aspect room with double glazed french doors opening to the garden, but this is a flexible and versatile space.

To the first floor all principle bedrooms run off the central landing and there are four well proportioned rooms , three of which are to the rear of the property and enjoy views over the formal gardens to the farmland and wooded slopes beyond. All the double bedrooms are serviced and complimented by the Family Bathroom and separate Shower Room.

They are mainly laid to lawn with mature shrub beds enclosed by a fenced and hedged perimeter. There are mature specimen trees, the garden is truly a wonderful space where the setting of this property can be enjoyed.

Set within the grounds is a timber and brick detached building which (subject to the relevant permissions being sought) could be converted into a home office or annexe for a dependent relative or family member. It is currently set over two floors with glazed window consisting of a room to the ground floor with toilet and further room to the first floor. It currently has a wood burning stove fitted and it is recommended that this is tested before using. This is under a pitched slate roof.
