Approached via a private driveway with expansive block-paved parking, the main house offers generous reception rooms, a farmhouse-style kitchen with Aga and pantry, and a homely sitting room centred on the Inglenook with original bread ovens. Upstairs, there are four bedrooms, three with en-suites, and a large family bathroom, all enjoying spectacular rural views.

Converted in 2001, the detached barn annexe provides additional accommodation - ideal for extended family or holiday use (subject to consents). It features a lounge with fireplace, kitchen, two bedrooms and a bathroom, with exposed beams and countryside vistas.

The gardens extend to around 7 acres of lawns, paddocks and pasture, interspersed with mature trees, wildflowers and a stream-fed pond. Outdoor living is a delight, with panoramic views, sheltered patios and scope for smallholding or equestrian pursuits. Two large agricultural barns with power, water and vehicular access offer extensive storage or redevelopment potential.
