How many properties boast this kind of setting in grounds including large private woodland, a walled cottage garden and lawns?
It is situated in the corner of Bylaugh Park Estate, where Bylaugh Hall itself sits, currently undergoing a programme of renovation.
The Shooting Box dates to 1850 and it has been extended to create a unique home.
It would have been the lodge where the shooting party from the hall would have enjoyed food before going out into the woodland - and then retired to afterwards.
But look at it now; inside are three lovely reception rooms, a kitchen, a lobby with a study area, a utility, four bedrooms, two shower rooms and a bathroom.
Outside is a spacious outbuilding within the grounds which offers a superb opportunity for development into a detached annexe, holiday home, office, workshop or stabling (subject to obtaining the usual planning permissions) and it should be noted that high speed broadband (via BT) is available.
In addition to the ample parking available, there is also a timber garage, an open fronted cart lodge, a summerhouse, greenhouse and enclosed garden.
