Outside
The level lawn, orchard with several varieties of fruit trees and adjoining former pony paddock offer a multitude of outdoor spaces and uses. The hedges and banks have a wide variety of trees, shrubs and bulbs to enjoy throughout the seasons.

There are multiple seating and outside dining areas around the house and grounds.

The Summerhouse has electric and Wi-Fi and has been used as an ancillary studio and home office.

The Linhay itself is currently used as bays for storage and workshops. The uses and potential of the Linhay to develop as a separate dwelling, 3G living, holiday accommodation or offices have been investigated by the current owners via a pre planning application, which they are happy to share with potential buyers, at a viewing.

There are several secure car parking options either on the cobbled courtyard or to the rear of the barn.

Extra land is available.
