This house for sale is a contemporary “eco-home” with environmentally friendly features throughout - and a secret garden. 

The property, in the hamlet of Knowle, was built with sustainability in mind, with eco-friendly features including solar panels, a ventilation and heat recovery system, and a water treatment system.

There is also a large lawned garden and a patio area, while to the front of the property is a parking area with an electric car charging point. 

The property is being sold by Stags for a price of £565,000.
