Prior to retirement, the land was successfully utilised as a clay shooting ground, demonstrating the breadth of opportunity the acreage provides. The grounds may lend themselves to a variety of alternative uses (subject to PP).

The accommodation is both practical and generously proportioned. Entry is via a useful boot room/utility room, ideally suited to country living.
