The self-contained annexe, complete with its own bathroom and independent access, would benefit from some enhancing but is a super opportunity to create exceptional space for extended family, visiting guests, a home office or even income-generating opportunities, subject to any necessary consents. The striking oak and glass extension creates a wonderful focal point, with a feature staircase leading to the first floor. Upstairs, three generous bedrooms are complemented by a family bathroom and additional study space, all enjoying attractive views across the surrounding countryside and towards the Ashford Hangers.

The part walled gardens are undoubtedly one of the property's standout features. They enjoy a sunny south-westerly aspect, and provide an exceptional degree of privacy and a wonderful sense of space.
