The rest of the block includes three stables and a very large workshop with loft storage and would be ideal for new owners with an equestrian interest or could be converted into additional accommodation, subject to the necessary planning permissions.The property is located just off the famous Minnis and approached through a five bar gate that leads to a spacious driveway and parking area to the rear of the property as well as to a large block paved hard standing outside the stables and steps up the usual entrance. There is also a gate and pathway flanked by the front lawn that leads to the rarely used front porch and period front door.The property is full of wonderful period features including wood doors, exposed beams and a hallway with original herringbone tiled flooring with storage cupboards. This has a door to the characterful dining room that features a brick wall and an inglenook fireplace that includes a Bressummer beam believed to come from a Tudor shipyard, and the original bread oven. There is an adjacent utility room with tiled flooring, additional appliances, storage facilities and a large tank as well as a lobby leading the spacious and dual aspect sitting room.This lovely room also has a brick wall around a large inglenook with a log burner that is just the place to cosy up to on a cool winter’s evening.

There is also an oak staircase to the first floor, a second fireplace and access to the 1960s extension that includes a charming snug with painted ceiling beams and where you can enjoy a quiet read or relax in front of the television. Beyond the snug is a very useful study that is ideal for anyone working from home.At the other end of the property is the 1980s extension incorporating a contemporary kitchen with an electric Aga, a larder and shaker style units housing a fridge and a dishwasher. It is open plan to a conservatory providing a seating and dining area with delightful views over the garden and French doors to the terrace.On the first floor there is almost a separate suite that consists of a double bedroom with fitted shelving and deep built in wardrobes as well as an adjacent bathroom.
