The second bedroom on this floor also has built in cupboards and an en suite shower room. On the second floor, a large landing provides an ideal study area between two very good size bedrooms served by a family bathroom. All the rooms to the rear of the house enjoy really lovely views across the beautiful gardens and the surrounding countryside.

    Beechlands is accessed from a long driveway leading to the front of the house and provides parking and turning for several vehicles as well as access to a double garage.
