A personal insight from the current owners:

"Great Fowlehall Farmhouse has been a loving family home for some 30 years with many fond memories.  After recently moving to live with family elsewhere in the UK it is our desire to move our remaining family from the annexe, Echelon, to live out the rest of their retirement closer to us again. The cosy period country living in Farmhouse provides a comfortable and private family home but there is still potential for modernising to your own taste (subject to building regulations). In contrast the modern annexe Echelon which is its own detached living space was built for looking after elderly family but easily has the potential for a holiday or long term let (subject to necessary permissions). The garden and surrounding land would suit any aspiring gardener or simply provide a safe fun environment away from any main roads for any family to enjoy the outdoors. The extensive private driveway leading to the Farmhouse/Echelon, also leads to the only two other dwellings close by, and they are both lovely families that make living here even more of a pleasure. Both the Farmhouse and the annexe have provided some of the fondest memories of cosy warm winters to lazy hazy summer days with some of the most amazing sunsets I ever seen which will never be forgotten and hope the new owners will love it as much as we have".
