Set behind gates in seven acres of grounds, is this substantial period family home that provides extensive versatile accommodation with the main house, office and annexe extending to over 4,800 square feet together with a further two bedroom cottage of around 1,000 square feet.

In recent years the property has been a fine family home from which the owners have run a business making full use of the extensive and substantial outbuildings and barn that are approaching 5,500 square feet.

The grounds are wonderful and include paddocks, a menage, garden and light woodland areas. There is a beautiful pavilion style stable building that is in need of repair adjoining the paddocks together with a more recent and modern stable yard.
