This nineteenth century country house has been one family’s home for almost sixty years. It is a spacious and comfortable dwelling that will appeal to all - weekenders or full time residents - and will hopefully bring the new owners all the joy and long life it has given to the present occupants.
The house is situated on 17.2 acres of land, a fine mix of lawn, meadow, and woodland. Walking trails meander through the property and into the adjoining Thorncrest estate. Thousands of spring flowering bulbs - snow drops, snowflakes, daffodils, narcissi - carpet the woodland,
