The second bedroom is similarly well presented with plenty of room for a double bed and additional storage and benefits from a beautiful large window overlooking the garden.

The third bedroom is currently used as a dressing room with deep bespoke built-in furniture helping to maximise the space on offer. This could quite easily become a single bedroom or home office if required.

The property also has the benefit of a workshop, log store and large shed. Its perimeter is framed securely with tongue and groove fencing and coordinating finials.

The wonderful, extensive south facing garden is a real sun trap and boasts mature borders and well-tended grassed areas; two ponds, one with a fountain and an orchard, perfect for those looking for a private, easy to maintain green space and a great example of the legacy of the Cadbury family's intention to create and protect green space and ensure self-sufficiency.
