This handsome C19th Grade II listed farmhouse offers outstanding and beautifully appointed accommodation which offers a refined blend of proportion, light, and period charm.
To the front of the house, the sitting room - currently used as a library - and the main living room enjoy a westerly outlook, both benefitting from tall sash windows, high ceilings, and decorative cornicing that underscore the building’s heritage and stature.
A central hallway connects the principal rooms, with the dining room and more utility areas located towards the rear.
The dining room itself offers an inviting setting for entertaining, with its generous proportions and close proximity to the kitchen allowing for both formal and informal gatherings with ease.
The kitchen is fitted with bespoke cabinetry, stone flooring, and features a cast-iron AGA, offering classic style and robust functionality.
The orangery is a particularly impressive feature of the home, with its vaulted glazed ceiling and panoramic garden outlook, creating a bright and versatile space suited to a variety of uses.
A boot room and utility area offer practical space for daily living, while a cloakroom is located discreetly off the inner hallway.
Completing the more domestic areas, is a well-proportioned cellar, ideal for either general or wine storage.
The first floor is approached via a graceful staircase with elegant balustrade, which rises to an elegant landing, providing access to four well-proportioned double bedrooms. Each room enjoys a pleasant aspect, with varying views over the gardens and grounds. The principal rooms retain the charm and symmetry expected of a period farmhouse, with generous ceiling heights and deep-set windows that enhance the sense of space and light throughout.
The accommodation is supported by a family bathroom and a separate shower room, both thoughtfully presented and positioned for convenience. The arrangement offers a balanced and comfortable layout, suited to both family living and visiting guests.
The house is set within beautifully maintained grounds extending to approximately 1.73 acres (subject to survey).
Immediately surrounding the property are areas of more formal garden design, with shaped borders, gravel paths, and defined planting that complement the symmetry and character of the house. Stone terracing to the rear provides a generous space for outdoor dining and overlooks established beds and lawn.
As the gardens extend away from the house, the landscaping transitions into a more natural and organic setting. A network of mown paths weaves through long grasses and under mature trees, giving way to a small copse and areas of light woodland that support both wildlife and seasonal interest. Towards the boundary lies a natural pond, discreetly positioned and surrounded by greenery, enhancing the rural quality of the setting. The grounds offer a combination of structure and freedom, equally suited to relaxation, play and informal exploration.
o the side of the property stands a traditional outbuilding, offering a combination of practical spaces including a cart lodge, log store, workshop and shed. This versatile structure blends well with the character of the house and provides valuable external storage and working areas.
