The Cruck House was built between 1400 and 1450 using the double cruck brace design, which is still visible today, retaining its historic charm. With original ceiling and wall beams, an impressive inglenook fireplace, and original oak floorboards, Cruck House is certainly a house of significant historical importance. 

This house has an exceptionally well-designed south-facing country garden, consisting of vegetable patches, soft fruit cage, small fruit tree orchard, a greenhouse and sheds. Some areas are laid to lawn to capture the morning and evening sunshine and delicate brick paver pathways wind their way through the mature trees and shrubs.

The Property

Entrance Hall – The magnificent oak front door opens into an Entrance Hall with stone floor and a picturesque window. To the right is a cloakroom area to discreetly store coats and boots. 

Drawing Room - The reception room, with inglenook fireplace, measuring over 6ft wide, and Clearview log burning stove, is home to the library and, with its higher ceilings and box window to the front, functions perfectly as the largest of the reception rooms. 

Dining Room – Up a step and you enter the dining room, with terracotta-tiled flooring and beams, it also houses a second log-burning stove and has a pretty cottage window to the front. The room is beautiful, suiting simple oak dressers and dining table. 

Kitchen – Through to the kitchen, which hosts a Rangemaster oven, built-in English oak cupboards and a butler sink, is the ideal fusion of contemporary conveniences with a traditional way of life that has spanned generations. The painted brickwork and exposed beams give this kitchen the perfect cottage feel while the granite worktop provides a clean and modern appearance.

Conservatory & Utility – Beyond the kitchen, at the rear of the home, is a timber-framed Conservatory with glazed doors leading to a terrace and gardens beyond. A useful Utility Room with sink, and secondary boot room area, is also accessible from the conservatory.

Downstairs Shower Room – Returning to the Entrance Hall, at the bottom of the staircase that leads to the bedrooms, is the main bathroom with newly installed walk-in shower, which spans the width of the room, and new bathroom suite. The walls are paneled, and the floor is newly tiled in a modern style and has an underfloor heating system.

Main Bedroom with Ensuite WC – Up the centuries-old staircase are the 3 double bedrooms. The principal bedroom has windows to the front and rear of the property and an ensuite WC. There are also storage cupboards built into the eaves. 

Bedrooms 2 & 3 – Returning to the corridor, the oak floorboards and exposed beams continue through a carved arch doorway and down a step to the 2 further double bedrooms. The west side of the house has vaulted ceilings with windows to the side and rear of the property. Additionally, there is a large full-height wardrobe/storage cupboard on the landing.

Outside

This house is surrounded by approximately 0.2 acres of enchanting south-facing gardens with brick paver paths, winding their way past several lawned sun terraces. Pass mature trees and hedging and the garden turns into the most spectacular vegetable patch, a soft fruit cage and plum, pear and apple trees. There is also a wooden-framed greenhouse providing potential for growing in all seasons. Beside the orchard is a large brick-built shed that is used to house the lawnmower and other power tools. The gardens finally open out onto a large lawned area with breathtaking views over the fields beyond to Hay Bluff. 
The terrace, at the rear of the property and outside the conservatory, can also be accessed through a side gate at the top of the driveway, where the garage and sheds provide useful lock-up space. There is a detached workshop adjoining the terrace currently used as an office and studio. The workshop is boarded and insulated and has power and lighting. Next to the workshop and at the start of the garden path are two large log stores, sheltered by trees and easily accessible from the house.
