Property description
Roughmoor is a SUBSTANTIAL COUNTRY RESIDENCE standing in FABULOUS GARDENS and benefiting from a number of adjacent OUTBUILDINGS. This house has been owned by our clients family since 1985. Located within beautiful countryside with great access to local walks and superb riding country. We believe the house was originally built at the turn of the century with some rebuilding of the main house in the 1950s. There is plenty of space with 5 RECEPTION ROOMS and 4 LARGE DOUBLE BEDROOMS. Impressive fire places sit in most of the principle rooms with large windows that take advantage of this lovely position. The GARDENS are a real pleasure whilst a number of adjoining outbuildings extend to a TACK ROOM and STABLE. This is a property with plenty of scope to create a very special home.
