Due to the construction of a new dwelling neighbouring the property, the landlord is willing to offer a rent rebate during the periods where external construction might cause noise disruption. The construction phase is expected to be completed in summer 2026.

The house is situated in an elevated position overlooking the Bourne Valley and the charming garden is situated on the south west side of the house taking advantage of the afternoon and evening sunshine, and views across the valley. The garden is bounded by an attractive brick and flint wall, and is mainly laid to lawn, edged with mixed herbaceous borders and surrounded by mature shrubs, hedges and trees. There is a delightful and secluded York stone terrace area outside the kitchen and drawing room.
