Description
Sands Cottage was the former coach house to Sands Lodge (formerly Cheniston) dating back to 1910 and forming part of a Falkner development of 3 prestigious properties each with a coach house. Remodelled and split from the main house we understand in the 1960s. The property has undergone sympathetic enlargement, retaining considerable charm and character and benefitting from a separate and most attractive, spacious detached double garage and annexe/guest suite/home office above, with direct access to the rear garden. The property offers tremendous scope for enlargement subject to planning permission.
