7 bedroom house

Beaurepaire Farm House is a charming red brick farmhouse which is located in a quiet setting. It is accessed via a gated long driveway with woodland either side. Originally constructed as two houses, the current owners have extended and refurbished the entire house, retaining most of the original features. Some of these features include the original oak beams throughout the property, some impressive fireplaces, one open fireplace in the drawing room, others with log burners in place and oak flooring in the kitchen and vaulted garden / orangery. The oak framed orangery is a wonderful addition located next to the kitchen with its vaulted ceiling and oak beams making it a great dining room benefitting from the warmth of the oil fired 4 oven AGA in the kitchen. The most recent extension has created a large drawing room with French doors opening on to a terrace. The other rooms flow off the hall and include a laundry room, family room and study making for cosy farmhouse living. Upstairs offers a large principal bedroom with adjoining bathroom, which benefits from dual aspect over the garden and grounds. Furthermore, there are six bedrooms and three bathrooms, two of which are adjoining. (Please see floorplan for further details.)

Outbuildings
The outbuildings are laid out as a courtyard offering office space, secondary accommodation and further rooms for the main house to benefit from. Directly next to the house is a three car carport with a further two garage spaces. Above the carport is a pilates and gym room, below is a shower room and WC. The secondary accommodation comprises of a large one bedroom annexe with a large open plan kitchen/reception room. The party room is located on the far side of the courtyard with seating downstairs for twenty people and has a kitchen with AGA, WC and log burner, whilst upstairs there is a bar and wooden dance floor. Furthermore, there are two offices along with plenty of storage barns, one of which contains a generator, which can be available by separate negotiation. There is also stabling for three horses, a tack room, hay store and field shelter located in the corner of the paddocks.

Garden and Grounds
The approach is over a long driveway through woodland either side, passing a lake on the right hand side. The lake was created by the current owners and has been stocked with carp and has a zip wire over the top of it. Continue up to the house passing the pastureland on your left. The garden is mainly laid to lawn with well placed flowerbeds and hedgerows planted along the boundary. At the back of the house, there is a granary, with raised vegetable beds. There is secondary access to the house via a right of way over a rear drive. Both drives are accessed via electric gates.
