Yarhampton nr Great Witley, Worcestershire, DY13

Yarhampton House is a captivating blend of history, luxury, and modern living. Nestled in the picturesque Worcestershire countryside, this 400-year-old property offers a sense of timelessness and tranquility, unmatched by any other.

An exceptional feature of note is the adjacent detached 3500 sq ft brick-built barn, which not only provides a hugely versatile two-storey work & hobbies space, including garaging for several cars, but also benefits from extant planning consent for conversion to two separate dwellings.

What sets Yarhampton House apart is the harmony between its historical character and modern conveniences. The light, airy interiors feature large rooms, high ceilings, and expansive windows that invite the stunning views into every space.

The home’s layout is straightforward yet grand, providing comfort and elegance throughout.

Approached through secure electric gates, Yarhampton House welcomes you with a sweeping driveway leading to the principal entrance and a central courtyard.

The traditional reception hall, with its impressive exposed beams and flagstone floor, sets the tone for the grandeur and warmth that flows throughout the property.

The dual-aspect drawing room offers a cosy, elegant space with a central fire framed by a Jacobean-panelled surround, exposed beams, and lovely garden views.

The heart of the home, the charming farmhouse kitchen, features a three-bay Aga, a pantry, ample cabinetry, and dining space set atop a quaint tiled floor.

Complementing the kitchen is a formal dining room, a snug, utility room, and cloakroom.

The full-glass conservatory is a standout feature of the property, offering a polished stone floor, a log-burning stove, and panoramic views of the landscaped gardens, making it the perfect space for entertaining.

The first floor offers six generously sized bedrooms, all tastefully finished, with the principal bedroom is of splendid proportions, benefiting from an ensuite bathroom.

Three of the other bedrooms are each equipped with a vanity unit & hand basin, whilst there is also a well appointed family bathroom and separate wc to the first floor.

A staircase from the first floor landing leads up the second floor where there is a whole series of inter-connecting rooms, including an additional bedroom with adjacent bathroom and dressing room. 

There is certainly ample scope to adapt the attic space to create a number of additional bedrooms or creative spaces.

The formal gardens surrounding the house are an extension of the property’s allure, with a box parterre, beautifully manicured lawns, themed garden areas, mature trees, and raised herbaceous borders.

Numerous terraces and seating areas invite you to relax and take in the incredible views, while the hardscaped terrace, pergolas, and walk-throughs offer a perfect setting for outdoor dining and leisure.

Additionally, a plunge pool and a lawn tennis court complete the idyllic outdoor experience.

The outdoor spaces are simply enchanting. Secure and private, the grounds have been the heart of countless summer parties, family gatherings, and celebrations, including the Queen’s Jubilee and the Millennium, where the owners enjoyed panoramic views of five beacons.

The tennis court, pool, and expansive gardens offer endless opportunities for recreation and relaxation, whether it's for energetic grandchildren or quiet moments surrounded by nature.
