With views across the magnificent Wyfold Estate, and access to 178 acres of parkland, this large freehold five-bedroom house has high ceilings and imposing period style stonework (constructed 2000). Key living rooms have double doors onto a private garden which backs onto woodland one way, and paddocks to the north and west.

The main entertaining area is impressive as the kitchen, sitting room and dining area look out onto the garden through the conservatory. This open plan area has three doors into the garden. The floors are limestone and heated underfoot in the dining area. It’s a great, flexible space to entertain, relax and sit quietly for a morning coffee and newspaper read.
