Bircholme is a fabulous, stone built detached house enjoying beautiful, mature gardens and grounds extending to 0.9 acres. Purchased by the current owners 12 years ago, the property has been renovated and significantly remodelled to a very high standard including an architect designed extension with a glazed atrium and double height voids providing tremendous natural light. In addition, planning permission has been granted to convert the large, stone built triple car garage, currently accommodating the gymnasium, into a leisure wing along with further accommodation.
