Situated in a quiet, rural location, and on the market for the first time in 30 years, is this charming, spacious and characterful grade ll listed former duchy farmhouse dating from the mid 1700's. Set back from a country lane, with mature trees and hedges, and approached by a private driveway leading to extensive gravelled parking, the grounds of circa 1.22acres offer a high degree of privacy.
The Farmhouse offers very spacious and flexible accommodation, with many traditional features and includes a stone fireplace with 2 cloam ovens housing a multi-fuel stove, a second fireplace with woodburning stove, slate flag flooring, and beamed ceilings. With 4 reception rooms, 5 large double bedrooms (master en-suite) 2 further bath/shower rooms, utility room and a large traditional farmhouse kitchen with a 4 oven, mains gas fired Aga and with 2 staircases, this is an interesting, beautiful and generously proportioned property. It is both a cosy and comfortable home yet wonderfully roomy for entertaining.
Externally the landscaped grounds offer many attractive vistas including the more formal courtyard at the front of the house, a mature orchard, herbaceous planting, wildlife pond with timber observation deck and mature specimen trees. There are various seating areas, and in particular the top terrace in the front garden catches the last of the evening sun. Bordered by horse paddocks, farm and private woodland, the gardens have been managed for wildlife and easy maintenance in many areas, and also used as a registered smallholding as recently as 10 years ago. Stunning country walks are directly accessible.
A detached stone built barn, presently used as a large double garage, offers possibilities STP, and is adjoined by a useful woodstore. There is a further small currently derelict barn adjacent to the garage offering further potential, STP.
