Dated 1870 and retaining a wealth of period features including original doors, fireplaces and terracotta floors. Finely built on traditional lines, the house is a convenient size for a couple as a permanent residence with plenty of room for entertaining family and guests. Two pretty reception rooms are either side of a spacious entrance hall with a handsome turning staircase. The kitchen-dining area is flooded with light from a steel-framed bay giving onto a pergola-covered terrace.

The outbuildings extend from the main house in a most attractive way, linking with a delightful outdoor dining area and a swimming pool with extensive terracing in terracotta. An additional feature is a 14-metre party room at first floor level, fully glazed along one side. The grounds are entirely laid to grass and have been skillfully planted in the last 30 years with numerous evergreens, deciduous trees and a productive orchard area. A purchaser should budget for upgrading the drainage system.
