9 bedroom detached house

Listed Grade II being of architectural and historic interest, Longbourn is nearly symmetrical in design and finished in white stucco under a slate roof with a parapet.

Internally the house combines elegant, well-proportioned reception rooms with comfortable bedroom accommodation over the first and second floors. Of particular note is the wonderfully light and airy drawing room, centred on an attractive fireplace with a wood-burning stove. The drawing room is triple aspect with twin glazed doors leading onto the paved terrace at the rear.
