House For Sale £775,000
Battlefield House is a uniquely appointed, elegant property, circa 1897, with an architecturally distinctive, part timbered and gabled façade with an attractive corner turret detail. The detached family home with many period features hasn't been brought to market for nearly 60 years. It stands in its own grounds with ample parking and a breathtaking mature garden with a detached coach house. Although now lapsed, planning permission was granted many years ago for two detached dwellings with separate access onto Battlefield Lane.
