The Property

The Havethuset is a highly individual property offering interesting three-bedroom accommodation, all on the ground floor, built along two side of the original walled garden, which has been created from the conversion and reconfiguration of some garden buildings.

The principal room is a large open-plan sitting room/dining room opening to the kitchen area. It is a light, dual aspect space with a timber-clad vaulted ceiling with roof lights and French doors opening to the walled garden, with exposed timbers and a pellet stove. The rustic kitchen has a walk-in pantry. At one end, an inner hall gives access to the main bedroom with adjoining bathroom and utility room and there is a ladder giving access to a mezzanine study area. At the other end of the principal room a further inner hall gives access to two further bedrooms and the shower room.

For further details please refer to the floorplan.

Outside

In all, the property sits in a plot of about 0.9 acre and the grounds are broadly divided into two parts, the walled garden and the rest. The walled garden is enclosed by high brick walls and has two large greenhouses and a brick-built tool shed and has a number of vegetable beds. On one wall there is an outbuilding which currently comprises a number of offices and studios with a cloakroom but offers the potential for a number of uses subject to the appropriate planning consents.

The rest of the garden is laid to lawn with a number of flower and shrub beds and borders, a paved terrace and has an orchard and here is a further brick-built tool shed. A gravel drive provides parking and there is further parking in front of the outbuilding.
