Description

Tucked away within the former grounds of a country estate, this charming three-bedroom country house enjoys a wonderfully private setting, surrounded by approximately 7.5 acres (STS) of gently sloping paddock land.

Dating back in part to around 1860, when it originally formed one of a pair of estate cottages, the property retains a wealth of period charm and character while offering practical accommodation suited to modern country living.

The house blends historic appeal with comfort, featuring well-proportioned rooms, characterful details and an attractive outlook over its own land. The principal bedroom benefits from an en-suite, while the remaining bedrooms are served by well-appointed family facilities, making the home equally suitable as a full-time residence or a rural retreat.

Outside, the grounds are a particular highlight. The paddock land wraps around the house, providing excellent equestrian potential, complemented by two stables, a tack room and extensive outbuildings.

These include two stables, tack room, tool shed, barn, and storage shed, offering superb flexibility for hobbies, livestock, or home-based business use, subject to any necessary consents.

Despite its peaceful, countryside feel, the property is conveniently located close to high street amenities, striking a rare balance between seclusion and accessibility.

This is a unique opportunity to acquire a characterful country home with land, history and versatility, all within a sought-after and well-connected setting.
