An existing 1970\u2019s extension to the rear of the property was then demolished with a new 3-storey 190m2 (2,045ft2) contemporary addition to the existing cottage. Accommodation included a basement double garage and an open-plan ground floor with kitchen, dining & living areas leading onto a terrace with koi pond and indigenous planting.
