About this property

Property Description

BETHUNE represents a rarely available and, in many ways, unique opportunity to purchase a substantial village house occupying a secluded tucked away position set within grounds which extend to about 4 acres. The house, which has not been on the market for well over 40 years, is accessed via an un-made track leading from the road which then brings you into this wonderful setting which, in itself, creates a sense of being in your own private country park.
