Outbuildings, gardens and grounds
A gravelled driveway leads down the side of the house and opens into a substantial rear courtyard. The courtyard provides access to the barns, which extend to nearly 2,000 sq ft. At one end, the barns offer equestrian facilities including stabling for up to four horses together with a tack room. At the opposite end, there is excellent garaging for up to four vehicles, with the corner garage fitted out as a workshop. There are three good sized attic rooms to the barns with plenty of head height. The barns offer an excellent opportunity for conversion into living accommodation (subject to the necessary consents).
Pathways lead around the house to the terraces. The side terrace is a sheltered spot with southerly views towards the canal and is complemented by two garden stores and two sets of toilets, ideal for summer events in the garden. The gardens wrap around the front and side of the house to include an area of raised beds with a greenhouse as well as a tennis court. The lawns continue down to the canal, whereby Sandon House benefits from a forty-foot frontage which provides opportunity for a mooring. The remainder of the grounds are laid to fenced paddock, with the plot totalling approx. 3.63 acres all in all.
