This country house for sale comes with its own lake and is a “wildlife haven” dating back to the Victorian era.

Riverslake House, in Langford Budville, sits in more than three acres of land and was originally a Victorian farm worker’s cottage, which has been extended over the years. 

The property is on the outskirts of the village, and is approached via a gated driveway with parking for several vehicles. 

Entering the property, there is a porch with a cloakroom area and a large hallway with oak floorboards.

The hall leads to the kitchen and dining area, which has an AGA cooker, a marble breakfast bar, and dual aspect windows with woodland views. 

To one side of the hall is a sitting and dining room which also has oak flooring, and which benefits from a multi-fuel burner and patio doors to the rose garden.
