Cockbrook Farm House was built around 1995 as the dwelling for the adjoining farm. It was designed to maximise enjoyment of the garden, the paddock and the surrounding countryside. The house sits back from the roadside and is accessed over the drive to the adjoining farmyard, which has consent for conversion of the existing farm buildings, to 4 dwellings. This yard (edged blue on the aerial image) is available by separate negotiation and is a superb equestrian facility with 10 stables.

The house has spacious accommodation set over two floors. The front door opens to the dining hall, which has a wood burning stove set into the fireplace, and windows overlooking the garden. The living room is a wonderful size and has an open fireplace. Windows overlook the paddock and garden. The kitchen is the hub of the home and offers plenty of space for food preparation, with an extensive range of units with work surfaces and an Aga, inset. The breakfast area offers ample room for family mealtimes and informal dining. Doors open to the garden. The utility is a great size and offers fitted units and space for pantry storage and appliances. The boot room exterior door is the access most frequently in use, as it comes straight off the drive. This room offers a sink and plenty of space for coats, boots and family pets. The cloakroom /WC is off to one side, as is the useful office, which has a window to the drive.
