These two reception rooms are adjacent to the kitchen and utility room and in addition downstairs, there are three to four bedrooms, a full bathroom, and a separate shower room. In addition, stairs from the hall lead to two attic rooms upstairs, both with restrictive height, served by a wc off the landing. There is good attic storage here too.

The immaculate garden is predominantly lawned with mature trees and hedging to the boundaries and with post and rail fencing to the paddock beyond.

A gated drive leads in from the lane to a parking area beside the property, with a three bay garage (two open, one with doors) and a garden shed. The drive then continues on down past the property to a grouping of outbuildings, which are in two blocks, with a garage, storage and stabling.
