Agents Note
The property enjoys a picturesque setting backing onto the River Yeo with far reaching countryside views. A well-established and effective flood defence wall installed some years ago within the garden has ensured that neither the house nor the formal garden has experienced any recent history of flooding. It should be noted, however, that the rear section of the garden may be subject to flooding during periods of extreme weather conditions and heavy rain.
