Description
Impressive, two storey detached house, commanding excellent views of the surrounding countryside. The buyer may wish to modernise or keep the character and features of the house as is. The property has been well maintained. This is an ideal property for the owner to put their own stamp on it and must be viewed to be appreciated.
The stone garage, which was originally stables, is yet another bonus to this unique property.
Uniquely, both the front and rear gardens are south facing. The large manicured front lawn is very eye-catching and very well maintained. In the Spring months many flowers bloom. The Monkey Tree at the top of the garden is yet again another distinguished feature of the house.
To the rear there is a superb private garden. The considerable size and layout of the gardens means they are full of potential.
The property was built in the 1840s. The attached servants’ quarter was accidently lost in a blaze in 1922 during the Civil War. Since then the owners restored, renovated and extended the property blending the historical features of the property with some more modern features of the time, preserving the history. Accommodation
