small kitchen area with hot and cold water supply and a large attached
hay barn, and the small yard outside which can be closed off. There is

into a useful workshop, with a substantial four-bay garage being created

predominantly on the south side of the house and are flanked by mature
trees, shrubs and hedging. There is a large south-facing terrace running
the full width of the property, which offers the best views of the gardens,
land and far-reaching views beyond. Under one corner of the terrace is
a small garden tool room.
