Built in the 1840’s, the house has been lovingly restored by the current owners and is bursting with original features throughout - high ceilings, fireplaces, a complementary mix of wooden and flagstone floors, refurbished and draft proofed sash windows and stylish reclaimed radiators – all contributing to the feeling of a dearly loved historic home. 

Measuring 1760 square feet, Morven Court has an enviable amount of flexible space for living, entertaining and working. This includes the addition of a beautifully designed Georgian style Orangery (from Westbury Garden Rooms), bathed in sunlight and overlooking the main lawned garden. The property has a stunning Kutchenhaus kitchen with Industrial style fittings, exposed brick and timber wall and a walk-in pantry with arched glass fanlight. There are four lovely bedrooms with beautiful old floorboards – two with fireplaces - and a master bathroom with a cast iron freestanding bath, Axor Hansgrohe fittings and a lovely Georgian window. 

Morven Court – extending over 1/3 of an acre – is approached by electric decorative wrought iron gates, opening to a long gravel drive edged by the original brick wall, and lined with peonies, lavender, and roses. 

The property has a large private part-walled garden filled with wisteria, old roses, lavender, honeysuckle, a majestic magnolia, ginkgo trees and a stunning weeping silver birch. The garden is bathed in sunshine throughout the day – with the trees providing some gentle shade. 

A second private part-walled courtyard garden - quiet and secluded – a beautiful suntrap for outdoor living during the summer months. A pretty wrought iron arbour decorated with grapevines provides welcome shade for dining in the summer months.

The location is perfect for walkers, runners, cyclists, dog owners and horse riders – step outside the gates and you are in a designated Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty just waiting to be explored.
