Agent’s Note – Available for purchase separately or as a combined acquisition with the neighbouring Granborough House.

Once used to house the Duke of Bedford’s falconer’s birds, The Falconry has been thoughtfully renovated and converted into a 2-bedroom annexe. With an open-plan living space, private rear garden, and ample storage space, it’s an ideal property for those seeking both peaceful surroundings in a well-connected area.

The Falconry retains its period charm throughout the property, encompassing original features with modern additions, creating a seamless blend of historic character and modern comforts.
