The Property
Originally part of the neighbouring country house, Little Gables is a substantial and quietly contemporary five-bedroom home, thoughtfully reimagined and immaculately presented throughout.

The immediate setting of the Four Gables Country House Estate forms a handsome backdrop with the striking country house, traditional stone buildings and tree-lined boundaries all positioned behind a gated entrance. Though not included in the title, the surrounding lawns and woodland create a delightful environment, while nearby footpaths and quiet lanes offer access to the wider countryside beyond.

The accommodation is arranged over two storeys, with the principal living areas centred around an open-plan kitchen and vaulted dining and family room forming the heart of the home. At one end, the kitchen features granite-effect worktops, twin ovens, and integrated storage, while at the other, a bright, relaxed seating area with log burner opens through French doors onto the courtyard garden. A separate sitting room at the far end of the house offers a more intimate retreat, complete with a bay window and log burner. Adjoining this is a generous games room/conservatory with windows overlooking the courtyard garden at the front of the property and the woodland beyond.

Three en-suite bedrooms are positioned in their own wing on the ground floor. Upstairs, a family bathroom, also functioning as the principal en-suite, serves two further bedrooms, including a generous principal bedroom with soft tones, pitched ceilings and elevated country views.

Externally
French doors leading from the west wing open onto a gravelled terrace—an easy-to-maintain outdoor area with room to sit out and take in the surrounding landscape. To the front of the property there is an attractive courtyard garden with lawned area featuring a date stone and large storage cupboards. Beyond, dedicated private parking also features for multiple vehicles. At the opposite side of the property, there is a generously sized lawned area. Enclosed by hedging and trees, Little Gables enjoys a quiet outlook towards neighbouring woodland and open fields.
