Description - The Old Smithy is a wonderfully characterful home that combines the charm and individuality of its historic origins with the practicality of modern family living. Originally the Blacksmith’s Stables, the property offers generous and versatile accommodation, with some lovely original features alongside a range of contemporary comforts.

At the heart of the home is the original smithy, now a large and inviting sitting room with exposed beams and a log-burning stove, creating a particularly atmospheric space in which to relax. There is also a delightful breakfast kitchen, while the generous living/dining room provides an excellent setting for both everyday family life and entertaining, with a second log-burning stove and French doors opening directly onto the gardens. A useful utility room and modern shower room complete the ground floor.

Upstairs, the principal bedroom benefits from its own WC and dressing area, while two further double bedrooms provide plenty of space for family or guests. The three bedrooms are served by a family bathroom.

Outside, the rear garden is a real highlight and offers a wonderful balance of lawn, seating and planting. The generous enclosed lawn is complemented by two separate patio areas, creating plenty of options for outdoor dining and entertaining during the warmer months. Pathways wind through raised planting beds and established fruit trees towards the front entrance, while keen gardeners will appreciate the two greenhouses, potting shed and integrated watering system.

Adding further versatility is the original barn/garage, which provides an impressive amount of storage and practical space. Fully equipped with power, lighting, windows, double side doors and a Velux roof window, it offers plenty of potential for a variety of uses. It also houses the property's solar panel system and battery storage.

The Old Smithy is a rare and appealing home where period character, generous accommodation and modern energy efficiency come together in a peaceful countryside setting. With two log-burning stoves, modern electric heating, solar panels with battery storage and a garden that will undoubtedly appeal to keen gardeners and those who love outdoor entertaining, this is a home that really needs to be seen to appreciate everything it has to offer.
