Accommodation - The ground floor opens with a flagstone entrance hall, leading to an expansive dining room adorned with original wooden beams, antique panelling, and a large wood-burning stove. The kitchen evokes a Mediterranean feel with whitewashed stone walls and pale blue cabinetry, complete with integrated appliances. Adjacent to the kitchen is the former ash house, now a well-proportioned pantry, ideal for additional storage. The breakfast room, accessed from the kitchen, is a remarkable space featuring a glass-topped well set into the floor and French doors that open onto the beautifully maintained gardens. Two further sitting rooms, both featuring wood-burning stoves, provide ample relaxation space. The ground floor is completed by a utility room/boot room and a fifth bedroom / study, accessible via private stone steps, with an en-suite shower room.
Upstairs, a galleried landing leads to four spacious double bedrooms. Two feature en-suite facilities, while the third and fourth bedroom are served by a family bathroom with a separate shower and bath.
Tigley Stable - The detached Tigley Stable offers an inviting open-plan living area with floor-to-ceiling windows, a Jerusalem marble floor with underfloor heating, a fully equipped kitchen, a double bedroom, and a wet room.

The property sits within approximately 1.4 acres of landscaped grounds, featuring well-maintained lawns and a stunning array of mature trees, including a Swamp Cypress and Judas Tree. The gardens are a delight, offering colourful displays of Rhododendrons, Camellias, and Azaleas, creating an idyllic outdoor space. Within the grounds, there is an Indonesian-style summer house with a veranda, ideal for relaxing on warm summer evenings, and a charming timber gazebo.
Additionally, a post and railed paddock offers a scenic open space, though not extensive enough for equestrian use, it is perfect for recreation or as a potential garden expansion. A stone outbuilding provides ample storage for garden tools and equipment.
