Description
A part 17th-century, Grade II listed detached property with a separate home office, in just under an acre of wrap around gardens with a tennis court, a detached triple carport and garage, with driveway parking in a village location with country views. Part of the property dates back to the 17th century, which is evident in the original timber framed structure with brick infill on the ground floor and rendered walls above. The clay tiled roof is 20th-century and has appropriate hipped dormers with casement windows. Three bedrooms and two reception rooms in the old part of the house retain the original timber beams, particularly in the downstairs ceilings, and the brick fireplaces remain - the inglenook in the sitting room, now with a wood burner, is still in use. In the 1970s, a two-storey extension was added to the house, creating what is now the kitchen, with bedrooms above, and the family room. The L-shape plan was created by adding the entrance hallway and what is now the cloakroom and utility room. (At this point the separate carport/garage was also added.) The building was then completed with the addition of a single storey extension, comprising the garden room and a quest suite. (Grade Listing no. 1368772)
