Overview

The Grade II-listed house is a landmark building within the ever-popular village of Long Hanborough, with a very private garden and two outbuildings which, along with the attic, offers excellent potential for conversion (subject to obtaining the necessary consents). The house has a huge amount of character inside and out, from the external 'flying flue' chimney, thick stone walls, decorative brick quoins and patterned tiled porch to flagged floors, exposed roof trusses, servants' bells and period fireplaces. The house is well presented in a traditional, country style which complements the age and setting of the home, though there is great potential for modernisation.

On the first floor is an ensuite principal bedroom, three further bedrooms, a family bathroom, and a store. On the second floor, there are three more bedrooms, one with an ensuite, and an attic.
