Dating from 1840, this Ber-exempt late-Georgian pile extending to 301sq m (3,356sq ft) will need refurbishment but has the bones of a lovely four-bedroom home. With stained glass and Wyatt-style windows, it retains some period features such as coving, deep architraves and shutters. It sits on 2½ acres on an elevated site in the town and also has cut-stone outbuildings.
Plus Late-Georgian gem with lots of potential
Minus The gardens feel rather bare and need attention
