The layout is both practical and inviting, with thoughtful touches that make the most of the home’s traditional character and proportions.

The rear garden is particularly impressive, being much larger and making it ideal for children to play or for keen gardeners to enjoy. Stone wall boundaries provide privacy and a sense of seclusion, while a small patio area offers the perfect spot for outdoor dining or relaxing during warmer months. An old stone piggery, located within the garden, offers exciting potential (subject to the necessary consents) to be converted into a summerhouse or garden studio, providing a unique vantage point from which to enjoy the tranquil surroundings. The overall setting is both peaceful and picturesque, making Plane Tree House an exceptional opportunity for those seeking a traditional village home with generous outdoor space.
