Property description
Substantial grade II listed country house together with self contained ground floor annexe Approximately 3.5 acres of ground including gardens and paddock. Approximately 5, 600 sq ft accommodation.
Barton Meadow is a most interesting detached country residence in an idyllic rural setting enjoying far reaching countryside views.

Adjoining the main dwelling is a single storey self contained 2 bedroomed annexe ideal for a dependant relative or possible source of additional income if required. It has its own private entrance, garage and the garden could easily be separated.
The grounds extend to approximately 3.5 acres and include well established level gardens and enclosed paddock which slopes gently down to the stream and pond with far reaching rural views. Within the field is a greenhouse and large concrete pad where stables once stood and could easily be replaced.
