Hornshill House

Hornshill House is a Grade II listed farmhouse believed to date back to the 18th century. In around 2000 the house was sympathetically renovated and extended. The house is approached into a substantial and inviting reception hall with a wonderful beamed ceiling, oak staircase and open fireplace. The heart of the house is the kitchen/breakfast/dining room with the dining area being of oak construction with a vaulted ceiling. There is a beautiful stone floor, central island and electric 4-oven Aga.
The house is ideal for entertaining with rooms flowing into each other, lofty ceilings and another focal point is the impressive drawing room, which is heavily beamed with a fabulous fireplace. In addition, is the family room with another open fireplace and study off.
On the first floor is the principal bedroom suite with a dressing room and bathroom off, with a lovely outlook over the paddocks. There are also two further bedroom suites, one with bedroom four leading off. On the second floor are two further bedrooms and a bathroom.
Hornshill House really does have the most wonderful family feel, offering modern facilities, whilst so much of its character has been retained.
To the north eastern side of the house is the barn style garaging for three cars with three sets of double doors and a workshop area.
The stable yard has seven loose boxes plus a tack room and cloakroom, whilst opposite is a period timber and tiled barn providing 3 store areas/stables. There is also a more modern timber and tiled barn. Behind the two barns is the manege. Approached from outside is the cellar that houses the hot water cylinders.
Hornshill House is approached through an electric gate into the gravel driveway, which leads to a large turning circle to the front of the house and also extends around to the outbuildings.
Bordering the driveway are areas of lawn, interspersed with mature trees and shrubs and a York stone path leading up to the front door.
Extending along the south western side and rear of the house is a York stone terrace which leads through to the private swimming pool area with a hot tub and summer house. Beyond the terracing are the formal gardens laid to lawn, with manicured Yew hedging, a walkway covered with wisteria and a pond. On the south western side the house within a walled area is an ornamental pond and manicured hedging. The surrounding gardens are laid to lawn with a lightly wooded area beyond. The remainder of the land surrounds the gardens and is divided into fenced paddocks providing both seclusion and a lovely outlook for the house.
