The flexible accommodation consists of an entrance hall, L-shaped dual aspect living room with far reaching views out over the lake, well fitted kitchen, separate dining room and cloakroom. A second sitting room leads out onto a south facing terrace with views of the lake and leads to a double bedroom (currently used as an office) with an en-suite shower room.

Features include ample off road parking with space for a boat/caravan/motorhome. A double open fronted cart shed and an impressive waterside cabin built in 2020, set in a particularly scenic section of the plot looking out over the water, conceived as the perfect off grid retreat.
The grounds feel like your very own nature reserve with pathways and boardwalks weaving around a variety of mature, well established plants and trees. A footbridge provides access onto a private island with a substantial hexagonal oak famed gazebo offering an impressive vantage point looking out over the lake.
The grounds regularly welcome an impressive variety of bird and wildlife, ranging from different varieties of deer, foxes and badgers to herons, moorhens and kingfishers.
