A Grade II Listed 17th century five bedroom, detached equestrian property on a 5 acre plot with grounds, stables and manège.

On the first floor there is 23 ft. master bedroom with exposed beams and high vaulted ceilings, a dressing room with built-in wardrobes and an en suite bath room with an oval bath. There are four further bedrooms including a 26 ft. bedroom which is presently used as a games room.
