5 Bedroom Detached House for sale in Gillingham

3 5 2

Coming to the market with no onward chain, Filley Barn is set in an enviable elevated position. The house commands truly breathtaking, far-reaching views across the rolling landscape of the Blackmore Vale, a panoramic countryside outlook that brings a remarkable sense of peace and seclusion.

Inside, the accommodation is both generous and versatile, arranged over two floors with an easy, natural flow and notably high ceiling heights throughout.

The vaulted drawing room to one side of the main entrance is particularly striking, creating a wonderful sense of space and airiness, while the elegant dining room offers a warm and inviting setting for gatherings. Both rooms feature open fires and French doors that spill out onto a beautifully positioned terrace, an idyllic spot for morning coffee, long summer lunches, or simply pausing to take in the beautiful outlook.

The kitchen is an archetypal country kitchen with space for a family table and a generous range of wall and floor mounted wooden units. The window is set to the front of the house therefore enjoying the magnificent views.

There is a generous separate utility room allowing space for laundry, coats, boots and further storage.

The property offers four well-proportioned double bedrooms, three situated on the first floor and one conveniently located on the ground floor. In addition, a charming snug provides a cosy retreat and could equally serve as a fifth, single bedroom if required.

Altogether, Filley Barn is a home of rare appeal, combining character and comfort in a truly exceptional setting, where the beauty of the surrounding countryside can be enjoyed from every angle.

OUTSIDE:

The property is approached from a quiet country lane via a gravelled drive, which gently curves to reveal the barn and continues to a generous parking area in front of a handsome stone-built double garage. The arrival is both welcoming and private, setting the tone for what lies beyond.

To the west of Filley Barn, the gardens form a truly delightful backdrop, carefully designed to make the most of the property’s enviable position and far-reaching views. An attractive stone terrace extends along much of the front façade, creating a natural extension of the living space and an ideal setting for outdoor dining and relaxation. An ornamental pond adds a tranquil focal point, its presence enhancing the calm and reflective atmosphere of the garden.

Steps descend from the terrace to sweeping lawns that fall gently away, echoing the contours of the landscape and drawing the eye outward to the surrounding countryside. On either side, well-stocked flower and shrub borders provide colour, texture and seasonal interest, with a rich variety of planting that has clearly been nurtured with care.

Beyond the drive, additional areas of lawn offer further space to enjoy, along with thoughtfully arranged raised vegetable beds for those inclined towards kitchen gardening. An enchanting orchard completes the scene, home to a wonderful selection of fruit trees including apple, pear, medlar, mulberry, plum, quince and crab apple, offering both beauty and bounty throughout the seasons.

Altogether, the grounds are a perfect complement to the house: peaceful, productive and picturesque, with an effortless connection to the surrounding countryside.
