Trimpley Lane, Bewdley, DY12 1RB

 
Hoarstone Farm, once home to John Hanbury, a prominent parliamentarian during the English Civil War. In 1642, the Hanbury family fled as King Charles I's army approached, leaving their home to be plundered twice by royal forces. They regained possession in 1660 and enriched the property by installing overmantels from Tickenhill Palace, dating to 1560 and 1630. These historic pieces can still be admired today in the dining room and master bedroom.

Beyond its historical roots, Hoarstone Manor Farm offers over 4,150 square feet of living space with six bedrooms, showcasing character throughout. Original oak panelling, exposed beams, and majestic doors set a timeless tone.

Upon entering through the front porch, you step into a spacious reception hall leading to the main living areas, cellar, and first floor.  the living room features oak panelling and a log burner beneath a puritanical overmantel. Across the hall, the central dining room provides a cosy space with an exposed brick fireplace, oak details, and a quarry-tiled floor. A snug/additional bedroom, tucked off the dining room, offers a quiet retreat, while the back lobby leads to the cold store, kitchen, and dairy. The kitchen combines modern convenience with historic charm, featuring a Aga and an archway showcasing original copper accents. An adjoining wet room with a double shower adds a contemporary touch without compromising the farmhouse's authenticity.

On the first floor, the southern wing hosts two large bedrooms. The primary bedroom boasts oak panelling, a puritanical overmantel, and a fireplace, while the second bedroom is a good size double with en-suite and mezzanine 

The northern side includes four more bedrooms, a family bathroom, and two dressing rooms. The master bedroom features exposed beams, a fireplace, and direct access to the family bathroom, as well as a private dressing room that could serve as a seventh bedroom.

The courtyard, enclosed by a sandstone wall, offers a peaceful setting with a sun terrace for al fresco dining or quiet relaxation.

To the south of the house lies an enchanting 1.15-acre paddock, accessed via a separate gate from the lane.
