It is listed Grade II as being of special architectural and historic interest and has recently been refurbished and extended by the current owners, Subincluding replacingHead all the bathrooms, enlarging and creating a superb new kitchen/breakfast room and fitted an excellent utility area. The accommodation, which is very well presented, extends to just over 3500 square feet and is flexible in its useage. It is currently configured as a 4 bedroom family house but if more bedroom space is required, both the sitting room and gym could potentially be used and in particular the sitting room which has direct access to a ground floor shower room.
