A refurbished listed country house in 2.46 acres.
Description
This beautiful farmhouse has evolved from its Tudor origins, with Elizabethan, Georgian and Victorian additions. Restored and re-roofed in 2022, the house provides some fascinating period features wrapped in a 21st century refurbishment. Listed Grade II of Historical Interest, an extract from the listing states: "House. C15 or earlier origin with C16/C17 and later additions and alterations. Timber framed and plastered. Red plain tiled roof hipped to right. 4 red brick chimney stacks that to front range with 3 attached diagonal shafts, 2 to rear right range with 2 attached diagonal shafts and a C19 diagonal shaft to single storey left brewhouse/outhouse range."
A reception hall, finished with a flagstone floor, includes a former baker's oven and fireplace. The interest in this room is further enhanced by a lofty vaulted ceiling. Adjacent is a large living room (long hall) with a vaulted ceiling, a wood floor and a wood burner. On the opposite side of the hall, an anteroom includes a red-brick fireplace and provides a link to the south wing, which includes a library, a sitting room, a snug and a secondary staircase. Overlooking the gardens to the east is a farmhouse style AGA kitchen. The kitchen has a flagstone floor, traditional wooden units and some exposed timbers and a 'mullion' style window overlooking the gardens. A large breakfast room lies adjacent and features a large inglenook-style fireplace, exposed timbers with a ledge-and-brace-style door into a rear lobby and ground floor shower room. Another door from the breakfast room opens into a large dining room. This room has a lovely red-brick fireplace with wood burner, exposed timbers with render and brick-facing walls. Beyond is the boiler room which has an external door.
On the first floor the bedrooms are on the north and south wings separated by a family bathroom. There are five individual bedrooms and three staircases. The second floor has an amazing 34' vaulted guest room featuring a free-standing slipper-style bath. Each of the bedrooms enjoy far-reaching views over the surrounding farmland.
Outside
The front of the house belies its true size. Metal railings and privet hedging screen a flagstone courtyard. To the south the flagstone wraps around the house to a terrace at the rear. The grounds are lawned and contain mature island beds planted for all-year colour and interest. The grounds include a variety of both deciduous and evergreen trees with some old fruit trees. To the north a substantial greenhouse (in need of replacement) sits in front of a topiary garden with five plots, lined in red brick.
Additional land
This lies to the east of the house, behind the gardens and extends to about 1.34 acres. This was planted with a range of deciduous trees which are reaching maturity. At one corner is a drive enclosed by double five-bar gates into a tree-lined avenue.
In all about 2.46 acres.
