5 bedroom house

The property is set in an open South facing Valley, in Carnkief set in approximately 8.25 acres of land, with boundaries planted with a broad screen of trees providing a good level of privacy as well as a steady supply of Firewood.
The land is split into approx 6 acres of pasture land, which is divided into 4/5 fields, 2 orchards, generous gardens and approximately 1 acre of Woodland. The Pasture land is regularly cut, grazed and spiked to encourage a broad range of grasses and wild flowers.
A stream borders the fields and flows through the woodland which belongs to the property. Despite using a woodburning stove every day in the winter months the present owners have never needed to purchase firewood as a steady supply of wood is always available from the woodland and boundaries to the fields.
Behind the main residence there is a generous barn with mains water and electricity which has blockwork walls which incorporate a Dpc. the concrete floor is laid on plastic membrane over a generous depth of large hardcore and aggregate.
The main residence is set roughly 40 metres away from a peaceful country lane and is approached via it's own driveway which is screened by trees in a generous mature informal garden designed for low maintenance by the current owners to include Orchards, Rockery, Pond and lawned areas. There is a fabulous selection of flowering shrubs containing some 40 mature Camellias, and roughly 20 mature Rhododendrons, English Bluebells in the woods and around the gardens.
The house itself was formerly part of the Chiverton Estate until approximately 1945. The current owners rebuilt the property to modern specifications in 1979 to include new foundations and Cavity walls. The Cedar Double Glazing was then renewed in 2013. the Annexe was rebuilt and extended in 2014.
The ground floor accommodation includes Kitchen which has units predominantly made from wood from the Original house by a local Cabinet maker and Rayburn Oven which is Oil fired. The Dining area continues the theme of original woodwork and some stone work and boast views over the gardens towards the Woodland.
The Ground floor bedroom is a generous size and gives dual aspect views over the gardens, you also have access to the Utiltiy Room, WC and Shower Room there is also a separate external entrance.
