DESCRIPTION AND CONSTRUCTION

The property also has the benefit of external outbuildings which include a summer house/games room, a separate studio with an adjoining workshop & an adjoining self-contained apartment which could provide the possibility of holiday lets/office facility, subject to obtaining the relevant consents. The gardens offer a good degree of privacy & there is a substantial area of vehicle parking.
AGENTS NOTE: In our opinion, to fully appreciate the size & versatility of the property, a viewing is highly recommended.
