Postern Gate Farm is a splendid three-bedroom farmhouse of unique character, featuring exposed timber framing inside and out, and an accessible single-level layout for comfortable, flexible living.

The main reception room is the generously proportioned sitting room, which features exposed timber beams and a handsome brick-built fireplace, as well as French doors opening to the garden. Double doors join the sitting room with the kitchen and breakfast room, which provides further social everyday living space. The kitchen is fitted with sleek, modern units in white to base and wall level, providing plenty of storage, while there is also integrated appliances, in addition to the cast-iron range cooker, which is set into the fireplace recess. A separate walk-in pantry offers additional storage, while the room also provides space for a family dining table.

There are three double bedrooms, all on the ground level, providing the possibility to utilise one of the bedrooms as an additional reception room if required. The principal bedroom welcomes natural light through its south and east-facing dual aspect, and includes an en suite shower room, while the second bedroom has a door opening directly to the rear patio area.
