Witham Friary, BA11

The property is approached via a country lane which opens into a large, gated driveway with parking for multiple vehicles in addition to the garage and car port.

Internally the accommodation is well proportioned, naturally light and well presented. There is a large double aspect living room which is a wonderful space with a wood burning stove that takes centre stage. Looking across the gardens to the side of the property is a very spacious dining room with room for a large table and chairs, a perfect area to entertain up to 10 and enjoy family living.

The kitchen/breakfast room is a large space with a fabulous feature floor to ceiling window looking over the gardens. There are a range of wall and base units (in need of some modernisation), an oil-fired Aga, room for a further table and chairs and access into the gardens. There is a large utility room/boot room which provides lots of useful storage, room for dogs and there is a downstairs shower room.

On the ground floor there are two double bedrooms (one of which is en-suite) and a further shower room, making a comfortable configuration for multi-generational living, with two further bedrooms on the first floor.

OUTSIDE

Externally, Green Acres enjoys a large plot measuring over half an acre with the ability to park up to 6 vehicles in addition to the garage and car port.

There are gardens on all four sides of the property which benefit from a very good degree of privacy.

Areas of lawn are beautifully decorated by a wide variety of plants, shrubs and trees. To the back of the house, with the most incredible far reaching countryside views, our vendors have installed a heated outdoor swimming pool measuring 36 feet by 16 feet, which has recently had a new pump installed and a new liner with a 30-year guarantee. There are also two 12 x 12 stables and a store.

Adjoining the door from the kitchen is an excellent seating area for al-fresco dining and a great space for get-togethers and parties.
