Osborne House• Osborne House is an exceptionally attractive late Regency

property which has been recently comprehensively refurbished to an exceptionally high standard. The house is set out in the classic four square layout with the original stabling and coach house surrounding the cobbled courtyard to the rear.

• The main house retains many of the original period features, with the large full height sash windows, period fireplaces and flagstone floors to name a few. The accommodation is laid out over two floors and has an impressive entrance hall with an elegant staircase rising from the limestone flag floor.

• There are great reception rooms, being a dining room, drawing

room and sitting room which are located around the large hall and study. The rooms are naturally light and have fabulous views over the private grounds and gardens which surround the property and open farmland to the south.

of the main house and onto the courtyard through double gates to the rear. In the courtyard there is a stable block, which includes an original stall, tack room and an open plan hayloft to above.
