Description
Leafields Farmhouse is a rare and exciting opportunity to acquire a traditional Grade II listed farmhouse on the edge of a popular village. Set in a large plot, the current house offers huge potential to refurbish and reconfigure, subject to the necessary consents. An entrance door opens to a grand entrance hallway with a traditional sash window which provides pleasant rural views.
A doorway leads through to the family room which enjoys a dual aspect. A further door from the entrance hall opens to thedrawing room with a large window and open fire. The drawing
room leads to a rear hallway, off which the large sitting room is accessed. At the rear of the property is a kitchen, and a pantry/utility room which retains brick thrawls.

The bedroom accommodation is accessed via two staircases, one off the entrance hall and one off the rear hall. A wide staircase rises from the entrance hall to a landing area off which a large dual aspect bedroom and a smaller bedroom
are accessed. The smaller of the two enjoys extensive rural views and provides access to the main landing area. The rear staircase rises to the main landing area, off which a further two bedrooms are accessed. The family bathroom is
accessible from the landing, as is a further staircase which rises to an extensive unconverted attic area.

The current first floor layout may benefit from reconfiguring to suit a purchasers requirements.
