"A five bedroom 3,200 sq. ft. detached house with historic roots and complemented by nearly 2,000 sq. ft. of versatile outbuildings for use as annexes or offices, all nestled on a 1.44 acres plot in an idyllic riverside and woodland setting. Dating to c.1625, the sitting room previously served as the Lock Keeper s cottage. Later, during World War II, a pumping station was added to the property to serve the field hospital operating out of neighbouring Lilford Hall. Eventually, the property was converted to living space and was used as a family home. In 2010, the current owners oversaw a significant extension that doubled the size of the accommodation. Blending rustic charm with functionality, character features abound throughout the house, including flagstone flooring, exposed beams and stonework, vaulted ceilings, a feature fireplace, and characterful circular and triangular windows with views of both the river and woodland. Mitsubishi air conditioning ensures that while warm and cosy in the winter, the property remains cool in summer heat."
