Description

Previously classed as a farmhouse and barn, the properties now present themselves as sister buildings separated by a pleasant lawn with relaxing shaded areas, utilised by the current family as holiday homes visited principally during the summer months.

The larger property exhibits noble detailing in its stonework and features a grand, fully functioning fireplace and an area incorporating an original walnut oil press - a true rarity.

This building is set over three levels comprising to the ground floor, a large cellar room, accessed via the lawn area between the buildings and a kitchen, accessed via a door underneath the arched portico to the other side of the building.

The first floor is accessed via an external staircase to a balcony which leads into a large living room with a most superb feature fireplace and half-moon balcony for enjoying those panoramic views along with a further door opening into a spacious room with beautiful high ceilings. On a slightly lower level is a gated room in which the current owner has assembled traditional rural artifacts, including the above-mentioned oil press. To the second floor are two bedrooms and a bathroom with beautiful original characterful beams.

The second building/barn comprises to the ground floor, two entrances; both opening into a large open plan space, previously used for animals in which the owner has interestingly retained the original eating trough, along with a most charming, characterful feature central column with surrounding living space currently used as a dining/lounge area.

On the first floor are two bedrooms and a bathroom again, with original roof beams and tiles providing that traditional period style.

Original materials are prominent such as chestnut beams and terracotta along with new materials, such as the large steel and glass door, complementing the property. Both of which combine to create modern and traditional style living.

Both buildings are set in beautiful gardens enjoying terraces with pergolas enhancing the truly splendid views across the valley.

The property also benefits from electronically controlled gates and a newly-made driveway.
