Outside


The property is approached via stone pillars with double gates and a further pedestrian gate to a large brick edged Cotswold stone gravelled area mainly enclosed by a stone wall with numerous shrubs with parking for 8 or more cars. To the west of the property there is a separate gated entrance into a lawned garden and gravel driveway leading to a gravel courtyard in front of the COACH HOUSE with adjoining 3-bay BYRE which offers excellent potential for conversion into an ancillary residence (pre planning application advice is available at the Agent's offices).




To the Eastern Side


of the property there is a brick paved enclosed courtyard and a outhouse formerly known as POUND COTTAGE which is believed to date back to the 17th Century and again with scope for conversion (subject to necessary planning consent).




South facing gardens


The fantastic south facing gardens lie predominantly to the side and rear of the property and are mainly lawned, initially enclosed by fencing with a wall and ha-ha with a gate to the lower paddock/orchards stocked with numerous fruit and beech trees. Within 18th Century walled gardens there is a Grade II Listed brick DOVECOTE again with scope for conversion to provide a lovely studio/office/gymnasium etc., and the further gardens are fully enclosed by fencing with laurel hedging. Immediately to the rear is a flagstone patio and a pergola.




POTENTIAL BUILDING PLOT


To the side of the paddock there is potential for a BUILDING PLOT within the development boundary - subject to necessary Planning consent.
