A wide and welcoming hallway has an attractive stone floor and leads to the cloakroom and coats cupboard, and has glazed double doors through to the snug/games room. The sitting room is a wonderfully restful room, with soft ivory walls, a woodburning stove with oak mantle set into the wall, and doors and windows leading out to the garden. However, kitchen/family/dining room is clearly the hub of the house, with a wealth of shaker style cabinetry under granite worktops, with large centre island and a door to the garage.

ADDITIONAL LAND: It is worth noting that the residents of Freemans Yard have very recently collectively purchased the large field at the top of the lane, to protect it from future development. It is approximately seven acres, for which our owner's share would be passed onto to the future buyer of the property.

THE PROPERTY - The property has mains electricity, LPG gas, and private drainage to a communal Klargester treatment plant.

Please note: the residents have set up a management company, Freemans Yard Management Co Ltd set up to look after the communal and shared elements of the development, of which several homeowners are also directors. This includes the maintenance of the road, shared septic tank and drainage, and the individually metered Calor Gas tank.
