Property description

AGENTS NOTE:
The copper beech at the far end of the garden has a tree preservation order. Although not on a flood plain the property was affected by excess water run off from the neighbouring fields as were the neighbours in 2014 but considerable investment into additional land drainage has assured that this has now been fully resolved. The vendor has advised this has not affected her insurance in any way.
