4 bedroom house

REDUCED PRICE.

A charming brick built 4 bedroom cottage with extensive lawned gardens, outbuildings, a timber framed summerhouse, brick built ponds and approximately 8 acres of private mixed broadleaf woodland.

The Forge is a pleasant 4 bedroom bungalow, sat in large gardens, together with an idyllic private 8 acre woodland to the rear. The woodland benefits from an abundance of wildlife and holds high amenity and conservation value, with established wildlife ponds within and paths through the land for the sole use and enjoyment of the owner.
