The Property
An outstanding country residence set within a peaceful and secluded rural setting, offering extensive accommodation alongside a completely self-contained three-bedroom annex and beautifully landscaped gardens.

Thoughtfully extended and extensively improved by the current owners, the property has been transformed into an exceptional family home that effortlessly blends charming period character with contemporary comfort and refined modern design.

An entrance vestibule opens into a welcoming reception hall, rich in character with exposed beams, wooden flooring and a wood-burning stove creating an immediate sense of warmth and charm. The adjoining snug provides access to a practical utility/laundry room and flows seamlessly into the impressive open-plan kitchen and living space. Bathed in natural light from windows and French doors on all sides, this remarkable room offers a superb setting for both family living and entertaining. The stylish shaker-style kitchen is beautifully appointed with integrated appliances and elegant worktops.

Positioned off the reception hall, the formal sitting room centres around a striking inglenook fireplace and benefits from French doors opening directly onto the front gardens. Completing the ground floor is a beautifully designed family bathroom featuring a freestanding roll-top bath and separate shower enclosure.

Upstairs from the spacious L-shaped landing/study area are four sumptuous double bedrooms including a particularly generous principal suite, serviced by a sleek family bathroom and an ensuite shower room to the principal bedroom.

Outside & Annexe
Little East Street Farm occupies a wonderfully secluded rural setting within a plot of just over 3 acres, surrounded by open countryside and farmland, with a gently flowing stream forming a natural boundary. Approached via a sweeping gravel driveway, the property offers extensive parking and turning space, while beautifully established cottage gardens envelop the house, creating an idyllic and tranquil environment.

Every aspect of the grounds has been thoughtfully designed to provide interest and enjoyment throughout, with carefully positioned seating areas offering the perfect vantage points from which to appreciate the surroundings. Beyond the gardens, a substantial paddock extends to the east, where a secluded wood-fired hot tub provides a peaceful retreat immersed in nature.

Further enhancing the property are a large, detached garage/workshop, a triple stable block, and an exceptional detached three-bedroom annexe. Currently operating as a highly successful holiday let alongside the main residence, the annexe offers superbly appointed accommodation comprising an open-plan kitchen and living area with a wood-burning stove and central kitchen island, three generous double bedrooms, and a luxurious bathroom featuring a freestanding roll-top bath and a large separate shower enclosure.
