Description
The Limes is a beautiful family home built in 1822. The main house is very well arranged with a superb double reception room which over looks both gardens. The dining room is stylishly designed with a lovely window seat incorporated into the bay window. To the rear of the ground floor is the kitchen which features a lovely island and large window looking over the gardens and grounds outside. There is a very useful utility/boot room and breakfast room arranged off the kitchen. There is excellent storage throughout.
Upstairs, arranged logically around a generous landing are 5/6 bedrooms and two bathrooms. All bedrooms enjoy lovely views either of the garden or countryside.
Outside, there are about 2 acres of extensive garden areas and grounds. To the front of the house there are beautiful mature trees and bushes making the approach to the front very attractive. There is a delightful pond which attracts wildlife.

Beyond the first garden is the garage complete with office above and further outbuildings. There is also a second drive and space for multiple vehicles.
