Description - Thought to date from the early 18th century, the property is Grade II listed for its historical and/or architectural merit. The Georgian proportions have been restored and enhanced by the current owners, who have refurbished the building, replacing an existing extension to the rear with an impressive modern space which opens up to the beautifully landscaped gardens.

There is a WC and a kitchenette on this floor.
First Floor - On the first floor are three offices (one with low doorway) and a fitted bathroom off a central landing.
Walled Garden - Wonderfully planned and landscaped by the current owners this beautiful space has a large paved patio with paths flanking established borders and formal planting with mature specimen shrubs. At the end of the garden there is access to the garage.
