Set on an elevated site, it's got everything you'd expect from a big country house, including views, generous living space, generous outdoor space . . . 5.5 acres of good quality land . . . and a renovated farm cottage for guests. And for the outdoor-sports enthusiast, there's a trout river bordering the property, a recently upgraded 18-hole golf course nearby and the option of purchasing a boat mooring (by separate negotiation).
The house is single-storey with double basement garage and overhead attic space that could be converted, subject to planning permission. The house is approached through a double-gated entrance along a tree-lined avenue. Accommodation is substantial and includes entrance hall, living room, dining room, fully fitted oak kitchen, utility, four bathrooms, master en suite and family bathroom.
