5 bedroom country house for sale

An impressive long drive takes you to Wallingwells Hall.

This five-bedroom period property has been meticulously renovated to provide a family home. With mature gardens, outdoor buildings, an orchard, and equestrian facilities, Wallingwells Hall offers a relaxing outdoor lifestyle. 

All the bedrooms are good sizes, and the dining room and lounge are long. They have high ceilings and a nod to the building's history. The entrance hall/boot room will come in useful for anyone with a dog, and this space has the potential to make use of the unconverted loft area.
