DescriptionHigher Yeadbury is an appealing and well proportioned property. It stands back from the country road and shares a drive (owned by Higher Yeadbury) with a nearby barn conversion. Turn right from the drive to enter the enclosed courtyard area. The house is completely private and enjoys magnificent views across rural countryside and the garden. The property is believed to date back to the 19th Century and was formally understood to be two cottages, now forming one good sized dwelling, but could easily be divided into two to provide a separate annexe or dwelling, subject to planning. It stands in approximately 13 acres and has a range of outbuildings, barn with integral loose boxes and tack room, workshop and car port.
