Step through electric gates into your own private estate, where centuries of history meet cutting-edge luxury. Yew Tree Cottage represents that rarest of finds – a genuine 15th-century thatched cottage that has been masterfully evolved into a contemporary home, yet retains every ounce of its period soul.

The grand entrance hallway immediately signals this property's exceptional nature, featuring built-in wine storage, bespoke shoe storage, and integrated seating – a sophisticated prelude to the wonders beyond.

The heart of the home flows beautifully through open-plan reception rooms, where twin open fires create intimate spaces divided by characterful feature beams, perfectly balancing the cottage's historic bones with family living.

The architectural triumph continues with a stunning glass walkway leading to the contemporary extension – currently a music room complete with impressive shower and WC. With air conditioning, ambient lighting and underfloor heating, this versatile space could also be very well used as an entertainment space, or a space to relax, unwind and enjoy the views of the garden.

The kitchen extends the entertaining theme with its own dining area and practical pantry, while the pièce de résistance awaits at the front: a fully soundproofed cinema room accessed through an ingenious panelled door that appears to be part of the wall – your own secret entertainment place. To the rear of the kitchen is also a convenient downstairs WC, as well as a dog grooming area for your four legged friends after their surrounding country walks.

Upstairs, four exceptionally generous double bedrooms provide, served by a contemporary shower room and a master bathroom featuring twin basins and a stepped bath that transforms daily routines into such relaxing experiences.

The 1.25-acre grounds are nothing short of spectacular. The heated swimming pool takes centre stage, accompanied by a remarkable pool house that doubles as fully independent carer's accommodation, complete with bedroom, hideaway kitchen, shower room, bar area, lounge, and twin skylights flooding the space with natural light, not to mention the air conditioning. Subject to planning, the could be an ideal annexe, or AirBnB for an income stream.

Tennis enthusiasts will relish the full-sized court, while the working cabin office, craft room, sit-down bar area, potting shed, and numerous outbuildings cater to every hobby and business need.

From the charming pond beside the double garage to the extensive additional parking, every detail has been considered. This is more than a home – it's a lifestyle destination where 425 years of history embraces 21st-century luxury, creating something truly unrepeatable.
