Great attention has been paid to the landscaping of the grounds of Granborough House and The Falconry to create individual but complementary spaces. To the rear of Granbrough House a large patio with a fire pit seating area that’s perfect for year-round gatherings and cosy summer evenings. Steps lead up to a large lawn offering views of St. James’ Church and the neighbouring countryside and which also houses a shepherd’s hut, currently used as a home office, which the owners will leave on-site and include in the sale. Built to a high standard with Norwegian wood and fully insulated, it’s equipped with a wood-burning stove, fitted desk, and wired internet—offering a peaceful and productive space. There are two large sheds with lighting and external plug points. There is a separate landscaped garden for The Falconry screened by a row of specimen trees with a shingle seating area, lawn and flower beds. In addition there are planters and a small pond.
