In the distance is the hamlet of Bournes Green and across the field is the village of Oakridge Lynch. The property is one of three house in Lillyhorn, Lillyhorn House and Lillyhorn Cottage being the other two. The property comprises an 18th century farmhouse which is full of character and period features, a self contained cottage/studio, outbuildings, stable yard, land and woodland, a perfect mix for the country loving buyer who may have equestrian or livestock interests. Alternatively the land can continue to be let on grazing license with the owner enjoying the peace and wildlife that the property offers. The outbuildings could fulfil a number of different requirements. The house itself is built of Cotswold stone with a mainly stone tiled roof. It is laid out to include two comfortable reception rooms, both having fireplaces with wood burning stoves, window seats and southerly aspects. The dining room is an excellent entertaining room, off the kitchen and adjacent to the garden room which overlooks the pretty garden. The kitchen itself has an Aga, peninsular bar and a separate breakfast area. Also on the ground floor is a pantry, utility room, boot room and a second cloakroom. On the first floor are the three principal bedrooms although there are two further bedrooms approached via a separate staircase, one of these rooms is currently used as a study. Each bedroom is fitted with built in wardrobes and there is plenty of storage space. There are two bathrooms and a shower room, one being en suite. A concealed staircase leads up to the attic space where there is potential for a further bedroom/playroom and a box room. It is worth noting that the property is not listed. OUTSIDE Close to the house is The Studio, a self contained cottage with a very light reception room, kitchen, bathroom and a mezzanine sleeping area. It is hidden from the house by a high beech hedge. The pretty garden is mainly enclosed by Cotswold stone walling and in addition to the areas of lawn there are colourful herbaceous borders, an Acer tree and relaxing sitting out areas and a wide flagstone terrace adjacent to the garden room. Set in the front garden is a well with hand pump.

An attractive covered archway leads through from the garden area to the outbuildings where there is plenty of hardstanding space.
