Grape expectations...<br />
<br />
Wine lovers will never have to buy a bottle again if they get their hands on this property - on the market for a guide price of £1.75million.<br />
<br />
Frithsden Vineyard is a ready-made 'lifestyle change' property with a five-acre vineyard of three different grape varieties and facilities to press and bottle their own wine.<br />
<br />
The stunning property in the foothills of the Chilterns includes a four-bedroom house as well as a vineyard shop and tasting bar - perfect for oenophiles.<br />
<br />
When Natalie and Simon Tooley bought the plot in 2006, the previous owners had run it as a vineyard since 1971 but pulled up all the vines in 2001 when it became too much to manage in their old age.<br />
<br />
The Tooleys started again from scratch with no equipment and no vines but transformed the land into a successful business where they produce about 4,000 bottles a year - which normally sell out by September - and host wine tasting and dining events.
