The Property

Comprising approximately 2.23 acres, the land offers a diverse mix of unimproved and species-rich grassland with wildflowers, orchids, fruit trees and established deciduous woodland.

The combination of open pasture, natural woodland, and private river frontage results in a particularly attractive and versatile parcel.
