The Courtyard is situated in the heart of the village of Greinton with double gates leading in from the roadway.  There is a gravelled entrance drive shared with two other properties and this property has its own private drive leading off to the garage and parking area.  The Courtyard is a delightful conversion of old farm buildings designed and developed by the architect seller in 1983 and now on the market for the first time.  The conversion works have retained much of the character of the property including original elm beams and these are enhanced by pine timbers, quarry tiled floors and large windows which look out into an entirely private and safe courtyard garden. It is worth noting that the conversion works included lining the original stonewalls with damp proofing, insulation and additional insulated block work or stonework.
