Description
A true sense of privacy and exclusivity is immediately apparent; as you travel down the bridleway from the main road, Elm Tree Farm slowly reveals its carrstone and flint façade through an attractive tree-lined driveway. The well-maintained and beautiful grounds which wrap around this home certainly indicate that inside is going to be just as impressive.
Upon entering through the main front door, the eye is drawn to several pleasing areas, leaving one almost spoiled for choice with enticing rooms to explore. A particularly adored space by our sellers is the bespoke kitchen/family room, favoured for morning coffees while watching the sun rise over their woodland. This bright and spacious heart of the home boasts an unparalleled finish throughout-a wonderful room for everyone to gather together.
The neighbouring sitting room boasts a large charming inglenook fireplace, whereby roaring fires in winter create a cosy ambience, whilst observing the wildlife through bay window doors to the outside.
Versatility was paramount when Elm Tree Farm was renovated. Our sellers work from home and therefore creating a well-appointed study was a key priority.
All the floors throughout this property have been re-levelled, eliminating the quirky, but sometimes impractical underfoot impression.
Off the spacious landing - one can easily access four double bedrooms and the family bathroom. Views from all the rooms in this home are splendid - open fields, woodlands and an array of wildlife can be observed from any window.
Both the principal and guest bedroom are particularly breath-taking, with features such as full glass walls and well-designed and neutrally decorated places to rest.
Elm Tree Farm also comes with an ancillary building. This dwelling was actually the first to be converted and was occupied whilst the main house was being renovated. With an open-plan kitchen/dining room, a sitting area and bedrooms - this ancillary building is one of the best guest houses we've seen. In addition, our sellers have gone above and beyond and created a fantastic self-contained gym, shower room and sauna, which is completely separate from the house.
There is ample parking and garaging, which really lends itself to car enthusiasts, and if you enjoy dining alfresco, the walled patio area will allow you to entertain in style, whilst the green spaces, such as the football pitch, will help the young and old burn out all their energy.
The opening grounds on offer with Elm Tree Farm reach almost 4 acres (STMS). Although there is the opportunity to acquire a further 131 acres (STMS) - flexibility on accompanying acreage is available by separate negotiation.
Where old meets new - a beautifully renovated farmhouse which seamlessly merges with the surrounding countryside, is ready to meet its new owners and embrace the next chapter of its life.
