A Grade II Listed farmhouse c. 16th Century set within a secluded plot of approx. 1.4 acres surrounded by countryside. The property has been altered and extended over the years to provide a spacious family home. The house has potential for further improvement and development subject to planning approval.
The entrance hallway leads to a formal dual aspect reception room with brick open fireplace with a further reception adjacent with a brick fireplace. There is a fitted kitchen leading through to a small utility area and ground floor bathroom. There is also a pantry. There is another entrance leading into a boot room/storage area with stairs to the first floor (to one of the bedrooms). Upstairs there is a dual aspect bedroom with fitted wardrobes (this room is accessed via the separate staircase and provides Annex potential). There are three further double bedrooms and a shower room/wc. The property features a wealth of exposed beams and character features.
The property is approached via an extensive bridle path into a sweeping driveway which meets with the detached double barn style garage with a stable to the rear. The gardens incorporate a further outbuilding and green house with specimen and mature trees and features a wonderful moat that borders around the perimeter of the grounds.
