7 bedroom house

The Fighting Cocks is a substantial period country house, which has been extended considerably over the years by the present owners, creating the ideal family home. The house benefits from several light and well-proportioned reception rooms, which allow for entertaining on a large scale. A particular feature of the property is the excellent addition of the large kitchen/breakfast room, which in turn allows for more bedrooms and bathrooms upstairs. The bedroom accommodation is well-arranged with a principal bedroom suite, 6 further bedrooms and 2 further bathrooms.
The extensive gardens are mainly laid to lawn and interspersed with mature specimen trees. There is a well-positioned outdoor swimming pool, which enjoys stunning far-reaching rural views. Adjacent is the entertaining annexe, which includes a log burner, WC and kitchenette. At the bottom of the garden is the hard tennis court.
