AGENTS NOTE The property is approached via a private, unadopted lane, providing a pleasant and more rural approach to the property. As the lane is not maintained at public expense, purchasers should ask their solicitor to confirm the arrangements relating to access, maintenance responsibilities and any associated rights.

The hedgerows bordering the lane are maintained by the adjoining landowners and, as is typical with a rural lane, their condition can vary throughout the year. At certain times, this may make access a little tighter for larger vehicles.

Prospective purchasers are encouraged to view the approach for themselves and ask their solicitor to confirm the relevant access and maintenance arrangements as part of the usual conveyancing process.
