Property description

This impressive house sits in a large plot of just under half an acre with fine grounds backing onto open fields and a good degree of privacy. The gardens wrap around the side of the house and are split into two distinct areas. One half has fruit trees and a range of herbaceous borders. The other area has a large area of lawn with some trees and perimeter flower beds. The gardens have been lovingly nurtured by the owners.
To the front is a gravel drive and two single garages.
