DESCRIPTION:

If you require peace and tranquillity, look no further. This stunning detached four/five-bedroom Oast House, originally a working Oast dating back over 350 years, was turned into living accommodation in 1904. With spectacular uninterrupted views across open farmland in an area of outstanding natural beauty, this property offers a full-sized artificial Tennis Court, Summerhouse, various sheds/workshops, outside toilet and a three bay Oak framed Garage - all set within beautifully tended gardens and fields of approximately 17.8 acres.

Limberlost Farm is approached via a sweeping gravel drive bordered by shrubs. Draped in a grape vine, the Oast has been sympathetically extended and restored by the present owners, exposing original beams, and creating an orangery. A brick-built porch with a quarry tiled floor, lead light windows and solid oak door leads into the roundel hallway with double glazed windows, under stairs cupboard and solid pine doors giving access to the reception rooms. Sitting Room with inset Clearview long burner sits upon a brick hearth with an engraved solid oak fire surround. Exposed beams to the ceiling and walls, two wood framed double glazed windows overlook the front drive and there is a wooden panelled storage cupboard. Double aspect office with views west, shelving, built in base units and radiator. Hub of the home is the spectacular solid oak framed Orangery with large glass roof lantern, radiators, French doors leading out onto the patio, laid with Karndean flooring which flows through to the open plan Kitchen. Anthracite units to include pan draws and larder cupboard topped with a white worktop all incorporated with a Bosh high level combination double oven, induction hob, integrated dishwasher, under cupboard lights and space for an American style fridge freezer. Another Clearview long burner makes this area a wonderful space. Brick steps lead down to the basement Utility/Laundry room with meter and airing cupboards, wall and base cupboards, a marble cooling worktop, sash window, French doors and an access point for the generator to be connected. The stunning Dining Room offers double aspect views, solid wood floor, beams, and a feature open fireplace. Cloakroom with pedestal basin and WC completes the ground floor.

There are four double bedrooms to be found on the first floor all incorporating magnificent views. Principal Bedroom with range of fitted wardrobes, dressing unit, loft hatch, and dormer style windows. Family Bathroom, partly tiled, incorporated into the roundel has fitted units incorporating the basin, separate shower cubicle, bath, radiator, wc and loft hatch. Bedroom 2, has a double aspect view, fitted wardrobes and spot lights. Bedroom 3 facing west with wooden floor, covered radiator and fitted wardrobes. Bedroom 4, smallest of the doubles has views East, fitted wardrobes and dressing unit. The loft room accessed via a ladder is lined with wood panelling and has a window. Bathroom 2 completing the first floor has bath, wc, pedestal basin and window with views west.

Outside:
The gravel drive extends on past the triple bay Oak framed Garage with side access, electric, lighting and storage above. Lined by Apple and Pear trees, the drive takes you down to the artificial full size Tennis Court and extensive Summerhouse with sheltered veranda, electric, lighting, plumbing and heating. Covered with a grape vine this building in our opinion, subject to the correct planning permission, could easily be converted to additional living accommodation. The side lawn with working Well allows access to the various Sheds, Workshop, Log Store, vegetable beds and gated entrance into the fields where a natural pond is located to the boundary. The garden and grounds are a true idyllic feature of this property laden with specimen plants/trees, capturing views, peace and tranquillity.
