About this property

Welcome to your perfect country getaway. Sitting snug in the charming and gentle Kindmore End by the picturesque village duck pond with willow tree. The red brick house is ideal for a family holiday, surrounded by a spacious lawn with kids climbing frame, trampoline and walled orchard with mature fruit trees bearing apples, pears, and plums. The local pub is a short 2-minute stroll from the house, perfect for an easy Sunday lunch.

Recently refurbished, Pond House offers a sophisticated interior. Guests can expect a wonderful blend of old and new; period features are dotted around the home with contemporary finishes and heaps of technology.

The welcoming home has a calming interior. The ground floor is adorned with wooden floors, wood burning stoves, comfortable furniture, and a neutral and relaxing colour palette. The modern fitted kitchen is an engaging space, perfect for casual breakfast. Large glass door opens directly onto the stone terrace that beautifully wraps around the back of the property. The terrace is the spot to take full advantage of the picturesque garden and enjoy a BBQ.

The adjoining cinema room in sumptuous dark tones with cosy velvet seating is prefect on cold winter evenings.
