Built around 1800, the main house and outbuildings form a harmonious whole, surrounded by parkland with centenarian trees. The lofty and light accommodation has grand proportions, with high ceilings and triple windows in the main rooms. A walled and gated flower garden with ancient wisteria leads to the side entrance.
With three large receptions plus guest suite on the ground floor and four bedrooms and family bathroom on the first floor, the property has been lived in as a permanent residence for 30 years. Several of the main rooms have been refurbished, while others remain dated, leaving potential to complete the refurbishment as well as a possible re-configuration of rooms along the south.
There are unspoilt views on all sides with many delightful corners in the grounds and walks in the surrounding countryside. For everyday supplies it is an easy drive into the nearest town, which has a choice of cafés and restaurants.
