Externally, Balwill is equally impressive, with generous garden grounds and a delightful garden room complete with wood burning stove, power and internet connection, making it ideal as a home office, studio or peaceful retreat. Adjacent to the house is a substantial stable block comprising three stables, perfect for equestrian use or versatile storage.
Further land extending to approximately 4.5 acres is included with the sale and benefits from a timber field shelter, offering excellent space for grazing, leisure or lifestyle use.
