A countryside home with what could be one of Britain’s longest back gardens has gone on sale for £600,000.
The detached three-bed has just had a top-to-bottom makeover and comes with a huge lawn, a big rear patio, outbuildings and plenty of parking.
But the real jaw dropper is what lies beyond the garden.

Behind the house sits a massive 5.5 acres of open grassland stretching so far that it looks like it never ends.
And buyers with big plans are in luck.
There is already planning permission for a two-storey extension that would turn the home into a five-bed with four en-suites, plus a brand new double garage with a room above it.
The property, set in Little Downham, near Cambridge, is being marketed by Richard Booth, as reported by Luxury Property News.
Inside, the home features an entrance hall, lounge, separate dining room, a refitted kitchen and breakfast room with pantry, a refitted utility and cloakroom, three bedrooms and a refitted bathroom.
It has a brand new kitchen and bathroom and has been freshly decorated, rewired and replastered. A new oil-fired central heating system has been installed along with new windows and doors, and upgraded insulation to help cut energy bills.
The listing states: “Having just been comprehensively renovated, this three-bedroomed detached home in approximately 6 acres is ideal for those with an equestrian or smallholding interest, or possibly looking to run a small business from home, subject to obtaining any necessary planning consents.
“The property is neighbour to Ely Eventing Centre and overlooks open countryside, whilst an adjoining drive provides scope for country walks or horse riding.
“An added benefit is a planning consent for a two-storey extension which will increase the living space and create a 5-bedroomed house with four en-suites.
“The consent also permits a new double garage with room above.
“To fully appreciate the stylish interior, location and extent of the land on offer, a viewing is highly recommended.
“The property sits within a plot of approximately six acres, with approximately 5.5 of those acres being a grass field.
“There are lawned gardens adjoining the house with an extended patio at the rear.”
