The house sits at the end of a long private driveway, surrounded by approximately 8 acres of gardens and paddocks. The land offers excellent equestrian facilities and ample room for a swimming pool and/ or a tennis court (subject to the relevant permissions), without impacting the stunning garden space.
The main house flows extremely well, with large reception rooms on the ground floor, offering formal and informal family living and entertaining spaces. Of note are the high ceilings that are to be expected in traditional stone barns and the exceptionally large southeast-facing windows frame the views of the surrounding countryside.
Upstairs there is a good sized principal bedroom, with en suite bathroom, as well as two more good sized double bedrooms with a shared family shower room. Attached but separated by stud partitioning is a well-appointed and practical annexe that is currently rented on Air BnB. This originally offered bedrooms four and five to the main house and could easily be reverted.
Converted approximately 32 years ago, Tom Jollys has been enhanced and modernised by the current owners. The property is now an exceptional family home designed to be versatile and practical for rural living.
