Description

Ranvers House is situated in a secluded and private position within the hamlet of The Haven, and has the benefit of wonderful views over its own land. Approached via electric gates, a brick paved carriage driveway leads to the 4 bay garage block, with self-contained flat above. Beyond this lies a single storey one bedroom cottage with kitchen and bathroom.

The ground floor accommodation comprises a well-proportioned hallway leading to an ornate orangery with views over the formal gardens to the rear. There is a further living room and snug, as well as a kitchen / dining room, two bedrooms and two bathrooms. To the first floor are three bedrooms and a family bathroom. The main house provides an adaptable layout and currently has two downstairs bedrooms, but could be altered according to the incoming purchaser’s requirements.

Externally, the formal gardens are delightful and have been well stocked. An expanse of lawn leads from the rear of the house, with an array of shrubs and mature trees. The grounds include a pond and stream, sun terrace, heated swimming pool and a tennis court. In addition to the formal gardens there are a number of paddocks, with post and rail fencing and a small stable yard. An area of woodland, amounting to about 20 acres, on the far side of Marles Lane is available by separate negotiation.
