Description

Bache Farmhouse is a charming character property dating back to the 19th century with later additions. The accommodation is arranged over two floors, with the kitchen and dining area being the heart of the home with a 4 oven oil AGA, tiled flooring, a central island with an induction hob, a double Belfast sink, integrated fridge freezer and dishwasher and space for a washing machine. Glazed double doors open onto an enclosed patio area which is fully dog proof, with a wall and iron railing boundary. This space offers a wonderful seating area, particularly in the spring and summer months whilst over looking the paddock land and garden.

The sitting room and music room, offer a fabulous space with engineered oak flooring throughout, a wood burning stove and a separate WC. This room offers lovely views over the garden which has a beautiful Clematis flowering in the spring and summer months.

On the first floor is the principal bedroom which has built in wardrobes and an en suite bathroom, which also houses an airing cupboard. There is a further guest bedroom with built in wardrobes, a family shower room and two more bedrooms.

There is a separate brick outbuilding which is laid out to offer further guest accommodation, with a bedroom, living area and a separate shower room. Doors open onto a decking area to admire the views across the paddock land. This building could also work well as a home office or a hobby room.

The whole property offers plenty of storage, not only in the main house but the useful outbuildings and stables.

Outside

The parking area offers space for a number of vehicles and extends to a separate gate which opens into one of the stable yards which has three pony stables, one of which has been sound proofed to use as a music room. Beyond the stables is a hard standing yard area, which has a separate access onto the side lane. This area would be suitable to store a trailer/small horse lorry.

A large shed with a lean to off, provides an internal stable block of two large stables and two stalls, which are currently used as a feed/tack and rug store.
