Rare opportunity to purchase a detached family home, hugely extended and improved and set within grounds of around 1.9 of an acre ( subject to survey ) and boasting an appealing mix of outbuilding for equestrian or potential business use.
The property offers substantial accommodation of around 3000 square foot and boasts flexible and comfortable rooms throughout. The current owners cleverly extended the property in recent years to provide sizeable annexe accommodation.
Viewing highly recommended.
