The spacious accommodation measures approximately 1,600 sq ft and offers versatile living space on the ground floor. Heating is provided by a modern oil-fired central heating boiler with radiators and there is also underfloor heating in the kitchen/breakfast room.
The grounds extend to the regions of approximately 0.5 acre (subject to survey).

The gardens are divided into two sections. A large woodland area is accessible through a five bar gate, providing a beautiful rural backdrop connected to the Thornham Estate. The formal gardens are adjacent to the property and mainly consist of lawns, offering privacy and seclusion enjoying a south westerly aspect.
