Description
the property

An attractive staircase with feature window leads to the first floor, with a further two staircases. A lovely duel aspect master bedroom is complete with an en suite bath/shower room and stairs from the bedroom up to a dressing room, the principal guest bedroom also has the novelty of a staircase up to the second floor en suite shower room, and there are a further two bedrooms and bathroom in this main section of the house. All bathrooms have a high standard of fittings. A mezzanine floor in the kitchen has a staircase up to the second floor self contained flat, with bathroom, kitchenette and bed/sitting room. This is currently used as a study. The house enjoys fine wide reaching views of the grounds or surrounding countryside.
Outside
Tibenham Farm is approached from the south, over an initial drive leading to wooden panelled electric gates on to the main drive leading up to the house and turning and parking area with space for many cars. The drive continues to the north, round to the outbuildings. The gardens and grounds are a particularly attractive feature of Tibenham Farm. Adjoining the house is a large walled garden, with an expanse of lawn and raised decking areas to follow the sun from south to west, perfect for outside dining and entertaining. To the south is a paved terrace, with the gardens mainly laid to lawn sweeping away to the moat, which stretches from east to west of the house. There are fine specimen trees including willow, oak and beech. The remaining land comprises woodland with walkways though, further areas of lawn and a large field to the south, incorporating wild areas with mown paths between creating a haven for wildlife.
Outbuildings
The farm has a good range of outbuildings all of which are noted on the floor plan. A general purpose barn provides excellent storage including secure workshop, and stabling if required, with other storage buildings, one of which is used as a gym. To the east of the house is a substantial timber frame barn, measuring 60’x 30’, which would lend itself to a multitude of uses subject to gaining the necessary planning consents.
