House For Sale £750,000
A beautiful period five bedroom farmhouse in an impressive plot.
Description
This substantial Grade II listed family home is thought to date back to around the 17th or early 18th century and sits in an enviable plot with beautifully landscaped gardens, several outbuildings and a private allotment. The eye-catching detached property extends to approx. 2997 sq ft of well-proportioned accommodation with a choice of reception rooms to meet the busy demands of family life. Well-presented throughout, the internals are in keeping with a traditional English country house, showcasing many character features, including original beams, wood floors and focal fireplaces. A particular highlight is the fabulous arrangement of open-plan kitchen/breakfast room, featuring bespoke Shortland handcrafted units, an Aga and a large breakfast bar.
The property is entered through a charming front door with an entrance hall leading left to an elegant dining room, and right to a relaxing sitting room. Beyond is the stunning kitchen/breakfast room with a dual aspect and adjoining utility room and WC. A spacious family room is located at the rear, complete with dual aspect and two sets of French doors leading the courtyard. Upstairs, the principal bedroom features a dressing room, with an adjoining bathroom. There are four further bedrooms, one of which enjoys en suite WC with a separate shower room. There is also a spacious family bathroom with a separate shower enclosure.
Set within stunning grounds, the property is accessed via wooden gates to the side of the house, leading to a private gravel driveway with parking for multiple vehicles. The front garden is elegantly landscaped to include a manicured lawn and hedging with well-stocked borders. Through a set of wooden gates is an extensive paved area with gravel leading directly from the kitchen/breakfast room and family room, providing an excellent opportunity for al fresco dining and entertainment. Through a further set of gates is a substantial lawn with established fruit trees and borders, an additional gravel seating area and secluded vegetable garden with two green houses and large fruit cage. There is a selection of outbuildings to the left of the house, which include a workshop, a gym with changing area, sauna, WC and a storage room above, along with a garden store and two pigsties/chicken coops.
