Both properties provide an ideal opportunity for two families to cohabitate within this fantastic and tranquil location, with bespoke kitchens, designer bathrooms and well-proportioned rooms with high ceilings, sash windows and under floor heating throughout with exposed oak beams and ground source heating.

      Positioned within just under 1.4 acres of formal gardens, the properties provide two self-contained courtyard gardens to the front with wildflower meadow to the rear and a delightful private paddock to the front with views over the ridge and the adjoining fields. To the front, the properties are set behind a walled boundary and accessed via an electronically operated wrought iron gate with large gravel driveway which provides ample parking and a 1,350 sq.ft four bay (six vehicle) brick and slate roof detached garage (two single garages and two double garages with WC). The garaging provides power and lighting with independent alarm system, CCTV system and security lighting and four independent and electronically operated roller shutter doors with ample parking to the front. To the side of the garages, there is also a useful lean-to with storage area.
