Step outside

As you arrive, the driveway is neat, well-kept and flows perfectly to where one parks in front of the high barn and absorb this hidden gem.  The farmhouse is positioned centrally within around 3.5 acres of formal gardens which are beautifully cared for, mature, private and a reflection of the owners passion for their home. There is a heated outdoor pool with summer/pool house with excellent views of the neighbouring fields and paddocks. For the equestrian enthusiast there are four stables and a tack room and a further 11 acres of paddocks with a menage. In addition there is a natural pond/lake.  Independent of the house there is the main barn, the high barn and the agricultural barn, all of which have been nurtured and cared for by the owners.  The main barn is substantial in size and lends itself perfectly to multi-generational living.  The high barn is of timber frame construction and offers a double car port, masses of storage and an excellent workshop.
