The Pound House is an extraordinary and unique period property, boasting a prestigious Grade II Listed status with origins that trace back to 1594.

This property is far from ordinary, exuding an abundance of character and charm, is particularly well-suited for larger families extending to 4,725 sq ft and even offers the potential for a separate annex, should that be desired.
