House For Sale £2,650,000
A STUNNING AND SPECTACULAR 5/6 BEDROOM PERIOD COUNTRY HOME WITH ADDITIONAL STUDIO SET IN 13 ACRES ..........
Cudworth Manor Farm is a spectacular period county home of exceptional proportions, expertly converted from a centuries old, multi-bay, timber framed barn. The extent and versatility of the refurbishment and design makes Cudworth Manor Farm an ideal home for a family where space and the ability to entertain are an important requirement and efficient living required. The accommodation - as can be seen on the floor plans - extends to 5210 SQ FT and is arranged over two floors across two wings. The grand central part of the building and the heart of the home is the magnificent main sitting/dining/living room, featuring a soaring vaulted roof. Here the living space, adjacent to the stylish and well-appointed kitchen/breakfast room with AGA, is quite simply without parallel. The open-plan style and dramatic sense of occasion, combined with a cosy informality - thanks to the extensive exposed timbers and the large wood burning stove, set up on an elevated hearth within an original French stone fireplace - provides a great space for both entertaining and relaxing. Also located on the ground floor is a peaceful snug/family room with wood burning stove; a split-level study; and three bedrooms - two with access to a dressing room and bathroom, one with an en-suite. Accessed from the kitchen area are the cloakroom, utility room and plant room. There are two access points to the first floor – one from the main vaulted living area via a contemporary, hand-made spiral staircase leading to a gallery overlooking the living space and in turn the second bedroom/ensuite & mezzanine - and the other via an oak staircase that leads up from the second wing to the main bedroom suite. The main bedroom is a magnificent room which features the oldest beam in the property and has a dressing room, a luxuriously appointed bathroom, and a sizable eaves storage space. The overall finish is exemplary in terms of style, imagination, and an impressive attention to detail.
A pair of timber gates lead into an expansive courtyard, perfect for entertaining or parking, located between the south/east of the barn and a former stable-block, which now consists of a double garage, large guest bedroom/studio with en-suite and workshop. Opposite the kitchen there is a traditional open stable barn for additional parking and in the corner an attractive former cart shed, ideal for outside dining. From the courtyard, a short flight of steps leads up to delightful and cleverly landscaped cottage garden, laid mainly to lawn, with a rose pergola, greenhouse and shed, well stocked borders, flower/shrub beds and a drinks terrace. The front garden is located to the west side of the barn and has a sun terrace, lawn and central path leading from the front gate to tall glazed double doors that give way to the main living area. From here there are superb views towards the meadow land. The largest area of the grounds is located to the west and across a no-through access track. Here the land consists of meadow grassland and areas of woodland that make for a beautiful rural setting. The meandering Beam Brook provides an attractive boundary to the west and flanks a shaded picnic area. In all, the grounds extend to approximately 13 acres
