Beautifully presented detached property with annexe and about 10.53 acres DescriptionShawford Farm is a beautifully presented detached period property, with classic part tile hung, part brick elevations under a tiled roof, offering much charm and character and having the benefit of being unlisted. The property was acquired by the current owners in 2005, and is believed to date from 1860, with subsequent additions.

Plans can be viewed on request. Shawford Farm is arranged over three floors, plus a wine cellar, and is ideally suited to family life, being both well-presented and comfortable.
