SETTING THE SCENE

A two bay cart lodge sits to the right of the driveway with large storage space to the left and generous driveway suitable for parking multiple vehicles.

THE GRAND TOUR
Entering through the newer section of the home, an open plan living space emerges ahead whilst a handy boot room sits to the right hand side through one of the many solid wood internal doors creating the ideal space for coat and shoes and where the oil fired central heating boiler can be found which was updated by the owners in 2019. Sitting directly opposite, to the left as you enter, there is a utility room complete with a mixture of wall and base mounted storage units with inset sink and plumbing for a washing machine and tumble dryer. Directly ahead, the living area emerges a cacophony of light due to its dual facing aspect and tall vaulted ceilings where exposed wooden beams create a welcoming rustic atmosphere. The floor space opens to leave room for a formal dining table with the kitchen sat just to the side of this, updated by the owners complete with a wide array of wall and base mounted storage units featuring plinth lighting and integrated appliances to include dual ovens and hob with extraction above, dishwasher and fridge/freezer. Down a small step the flooring switches to solid wood where a feature red brick fireplace greets you complete with solid timber mantel and brick hearth. An access door takes you into the courtyard which is perfectly positioned for a private entertainment area.

Heading through into the original section of the property believed to be dating back to the 17th century, tiled flooring greets you in a large open hallway. This versatile space could be used for storage or transitioning between living areas or could potentially host an office setup if desired. Heading through from here, a secondary lobby is where access comes to multiple points within the home including the secondary access into the courtyard, stairs with split landing to the first floor accommodation and wrap around access to the first of the double bedrooms. This bedroom can be accessed from each of the ground floor hallways - a generously sized double bedroom complete with tiled flooring and original exposed wooden beams. This room benefits from an en-suite shower room where a large storage cupboard can be housed, walk in shower unit and modern slimline radiator. The largest of bedrooms sits at the very end of the hallway on the ground floor. Measuring an impressive 20’ in length this dual aspect space is flooded with natural light and laid with carpeted flooring where recently installed bespoke built in wardrobes sit on either side of the bedroom. This room much like the other on the ground floor also benefits from a walk in en-suite shower room complete with a low level towel rail and frosted glass window.

Towards the front of the home heading to the first floor and the stairway splits in both directions with stunning tall vaulted ceilings. The left hand side leads you towards the second and perhaps most spectacular of the reception areas - the tall vaulted ceiling meets a 17ft at its peak from the floor complete with a multi aspect viewing space over the fields and gardens beyond. Exposed wooden beams add to the authentic atmosphere within the home whilst a modern wood burner sits towards the centre of the room ideal for those cosier evenings. Heading towards the rear of this gallery style living area, a secondary reception space can be found. Currently used as a home office by the current owners however could become a secondary snug sitting room or potential children's play room if desired. The adjacent side of the first floor houses two further bedrooms with the smaller currently functioning as a home workspace however could easily become a single bedroom or nursery setup if desired whilst a double bedroom sits just next door again featuring period exposed features such as wooden beams and tall vaulted ceilings. With both of these bedrooms having use of a three piece bathroom suite complete with rainfall shower head and glass screen mounted over the bath.

THE GREAT OUTDOORS

Laid with a mixture of shingle and hard standing with multiple colourful planting areas adding to the atmospheric setting of this space. Within here there are multiple outbuildings for further storage or potential conversion (stp). The gardens then sprawls out beyond this towards the farmed fields where initially, a private garden space is littered with tall mature trees creating the ideal garden area where a bespoke timber-built barbecue hut is nestled towards the very top of the garden. Between the hedgerows, a five bar timber swinging gate leads you through to the rest of the garden, where initially an orchard of fruit bearing trees and a vegetable garden can be found, with hard standing for a large greenhouse and raised planting beds. From here separated into individual sections, there are a total of four pa...
