Grounds
The property was designed and built in 1994 on a plot of land just over 5700 m?. The now fully matured landscaped garden with unusual trees surrounds the house. There is a small pond with its own waterfall and fish. The current owner has spent a lot of time developing the vegetable garden. There are half a dozen watering points throughout the garden. There is ample space to install a swimming pool. You can reach the house from the front garden over a small bridge and you can drive to the back of the house with parking spaces, with access to the garage and its own entrance to the house. At the bottom of the garden is a tool/garden shed.

General condition
The property has been well maintained. All windows have double glazing and the downstairs open living space has underfloor heating. There is an open fireplace but a woodburner can be installed for more efficiency. Low maintenance facade and very well insulated.

Comment
Situated in peaceful countryside this house would benefit from general redecorating and some updating but is habitable straight away. An attractive property, with modern eco-friendly features.
