Description
Brookside Cottage Farm, is a Grade II Listed, 18th Century farmhouse, of brick and flint construction, over a thatched roof, with two dormer windows to the original front façade. Having once been part of the wider Hobbles Green Farm estate, it has not only undergone an extensive programme of renovation and improvement, it has also been comprehensively extended to more than double its original size.
The highly insulated extension provides a large open-plan Live-In Kitchen to the ground floor, featuring an in-frame wooden kitchen, with bespoke built island, both with solid oak worktops. Inglenook fireplace constructed from reclaimed brick, featuring a green-oak bressummer beam and Stovax wood burning stove. The first floor consists of a galleried landing, leading to the generous Master and Guest ensuites, both of which feature high vaulted ceilings and apex dormer windows, which are hardwood and double glazed.
Outside features a traditional cottage garden to the front, a sunken terrace featuring sleeper-walls to the rear, with a large area of shingled drive, suitable for numerous cars, a tack-feed-store-room and log store, and another area of lawn with specimen plum tree.
However, the standout external features, however, are the equestrian facilities, with two large newly fenced post and rail paddocks with double stable and field-shelter, alongside a wonderful area of woodland, perfect for sustainable wood production. All in, the grounds are approx. four acres.
