Description: Gabwell Court is an impressive and spacious home converted from a former dairy in the later 1900’s retaining many interesting period features, and constructed in local red sandstone. The house is set well back in the plot which extends to around 0.6 acres of secluded grounds with a gated driveway leading from Stoke Road. The house surrounds a large central paved terrace on three sides forming a very private and sheltered area, perfect for relaxing or entertaining on warmer days. The main garden to the front of the house is broadly level, but slopes to the rear where it reaches first floor level with gated access to a lane. Accommodation briefly comprises 3 double bedrooms (main en suite) and family bathroom off a large landing to the first floor. The ground floor has generous ceiling heights with a reception hall off which is a large and impressive sitting/dining room, study, orangery, kitchen/breakfast room and utility room. There is a loft room over the garage which could make a great 4th bedroom if required, or the study could be utilised as a ground floor bedroom.
The current owners refurbished the property throughout along with other improvements when they acquired it around 15 years ago, and today it presented in very good order throughout.

Council Tax pays for multiple services in the property's local authority with only part of it going to the council itself. Residences within a Parish or Town Council area have an additional charge to fund the body. Each parish/town council has a different budget and imposes different fees. Not all councils have parishes/town councils and this varies across the country.
In instances where parish/town councils do affect the council tax value and we do not have the exact figure, we present council tax data with the below highlights. Take care to confirm which is being presented by the dashboard as this will need to be made clear to your clients:
avg - When we indicate the Council Tax price is 'avg', it means we have not been able to obtain an exact figure, so this number represents the mean value of Council Tax across the council for that property band. The exact figure will be slightly higher or lower because each parish/town council is priced differently.
min - When we indicate the Council Tax is a 'min', it represents the known amount that the council sets for itself, but excludes the parish/town council cost which we have not been able to obtain. The additional cost will need to be considered as it will be greater than the indicated price.
