The property is approached off Long Lane through timber gates onto a gravel car parking and turning area. There is an attractive front garden bordered by a tall green sandstone wall with raised flower and shrub borders which effectively screens the property from its neighbours. The majority of the garden lies to the rear and has been beautifully tended by the current owners providing a delightful backdrop to the property. An attractive brick path extends along the width of the rear garden providing access to lawned areas flanked by well stocked flower and shrub borders, with a covered area and seating adjoining the western boundary. There is an attractive ornamental cherry tree with an area of gravel garden which leads down to an ornamental pond flanked by silver birch on both sides. Beyond this there is a paddock which is fenced with a variety of indigenous trees including silver birch and willow and a summerhouse.
There is a right of way over the neighbour’s land to give access to the paddock at the rear.

Description
Reputedly based on a Dorset Long House, records show that Old Bozley Farm House was modernised in 1879 so clearly predates this period by some margin and has been updated over the years. It is unlisted with predominantly green sandstone elevations under a thatched roof (following a thatch report the sellers have scheduled for remedial works to be undertaken to the south east facing pitch and redressing where necessary to the drive slope). Old Bozley Farm House is in an elevated position with outstanding southerly views over the surrounding countryside. Sensibly configured, the property has good ceiling heights and nicely proportioned rooms, many of which are beamed. Approached from a large external porch into the hall/kitchen/breakfast room, all the principal reception rooms face south; the kitchen has an oil fired AGA. Other attributes include some quarry tile flooring, a large inglenook fireplace in the sitting room and a delightful garden room with French doors onto the rear garden. The principal bedroom has an open fireplace and attractive window seat; subject to building regulations it would be possible to combine bedrooms three and four to create a larger bedroom. The former garage could also be incorporated into the existing accommodation; it is currently used as a large storeroom adjoining the kitchen.The property is approached off Long Lane through timber gates onto a gravel car parking and turning area. There is an attractive front garden bordered by a tall green sandstone wall with raised flower and shrub borders which effectively screens the property from its neighbours. The majority of the garden lies to the rear and has been beautifully tended by the current owners providing a delightful backdrop to the property.
