The Property
Moorgate House is a very attractive, well presented, Georgian house believed to date from about 1830, with later additions. The side elevation, facing the lane, has a built in Victorian post box. The house is stone built, with brick window quoins under a pantile roof. It is Grade II listed.

Many of the features appropriate to the period remain creating a warm and friendly atmosphere. There are archways, moulded skirting and door architraves, sash windows and window seats, fireplaces, and a pretty staircase with simple balustrade rises to the first floor.

The family room, which is an atmospheric room, is fitted with a period grate and looks over the pretty garden as does the sitting room which has a wood burning stove and is linked to the music room by a wide archway. The rear hall could easily be used as a dining hall and the study overlooks the entrance drive. The breakfast kitchen with wood painted units and integrated appliances including range cooker, dishwasher, and fridge/freezer, has French doors in the breakfast area opening to the garden.

On the first floor the principal bedroom with en suite bath/shower room, has superb views over farmland to wooded hills. There are three further double bedrooms and family bath/shower room.
