"High Barn
High Barn is a spacious and well presented home built in the 1930s, designed in the Arts and Crafts style with white rendered walls, a tiled roof, and distinctive eyebrow windows. The property has been thoughtfully extended and updated, blending traditional character with modern features, making it a comfortable and practical family home. High Barn is set back from the road and approached via a five bar gate, opening to a gravel in and out driveway that curves around a central lawn planted with shrubs. Along the drive is a triple bay garage with electric doors.

Gardens and Grounds
On one side of the property is a paddock with a stable block, made up of two stables and a tack room. The enclosed hard tennis court is screened from the lawn by a yew hedge. Behind the house, the main formal garden sits off the sitting and dining rooms. This space features a York stone terrace with box knot gardens and lovely views across the wider grounds and toward the nearby woodland. Stone steps lead down to a lawn bordered by trees and shrubs, offering a quiet and private setting.

To one side of the garden is the pool terrace, with a heated swimming pool fitted. The pool is surrounded by a generous paved area for sun loungers and outdoor dining, and there s also a brick built pool house for changing or storing garden furniture
