Property Description

Rarely available freehold property with licenced use of aviation facilities in an area of outstanding natural beauty


Pooh Corner is situated on a select private estate of just four properties developed 30 years ago. The property has licenced access (with certain limitations) from the owner of Upper Harford to a private grass airstrip and substantial storage facilities. The property itself is built of locally quarried Cotswold stone beneath a pitched and tiled roof and benefits from a recently constructed selfcontained annexe.

The sale of Pooh Corner provides a genuinely exciting opportunity to purchase a well-presented Cotswold property with the unusual benefit of access to private aviation facilities at an air strip which is highly regarded within the aviation community.

The property is likely to be of particular appeal to those buyers with a requirement for a swift commute for work or leisure.
