fortunate to have all of the principal rooms south facing. This, combined with the beautiful original features throughout, has created a property of great character and charm. It offers a pretty façade with shutters and ornate balcony which allows views of the river, as well as the beautiful gardens.

The ground floor features a spacious reception hall with painted panelled walls and feature fireplace with log burner. Sitting room with Canadian pine panelling which gives this room a wonderful warm ambience.

A wrought iron gate in the high brick wall opens to reveal a charming formally planted west garden with York stone paving. This has created a welcoming entrance. A unique arched wood store leads you through to the walled south facing garden. The garden is principally laid to lawn with mature trees, herbaceous borders and shrubs. The paved York stone terrace, which is
