The property is approached along a private shared lane, leading to the long private drive to this property. The house sits relatively centrally within the plot, with gardens to all sides. There is a large parking area, timber outbuilding/stables with further garage, large paddock and various fenced enclosure areas ideal for livestock or growing vegetables. Within the gardens is a former tennis court area which is currently a vegetable patch.
AGENT'S NOTES
The current owners run a business from part of the property, and therefore a portion of it is designated as commercial use for rates. We would not anticipate any issues with reverting the property to entirely residential if required, but would advise interested buyers to make their own enquiries for reassurance.
