3 bedroom semi-detached house for sale

On the market for the first time in 100 years, a charming Victorian semi-detached cottage, set in beautiful grounds of c.1.5 acres. The property is quietly positioned in mature grounds that were part of the historic Swyncombe Estate.

Set well back from the lane and approached via a long driveway, with a large garage/store. The property enjoys an exceptional sense of seclusion and tranquillity, with far-reaching views across the surrounding countryside.
