A Virtual Tour is available on request. * The front door opens to a generous entrance hall and the rear courtyard and garden, with the office/hobby room and separate laundry/utility room off to one side. * The entrance hall leads to the welcoming, open plan kitchen dining room, with staircase to the first floor. * The kitchen is complemented by bespoke, hand-made Beech fitted units with granite work-surfaces, a Belfast-style sink, and 4-oven Aga. There is space for a dishwasher and a fridge/freezer (the free-standing butcher’s block is not included in the sale). A stable door opens to the garden.

The two remaining bedrooms both have fitted storage and vanity sink units. * There are attractive exposed beams and trusses throughout the property. All rooms have good ceiling heights.

The Annexe
* Opposite the house and within the courtyard is a detached, one bedroom annexe, also with attractive exposed beams and trusses. This provides ideal living for dependent relatives, guests or business use (subject to suitable consents). * The entrance via the utility leads to an open plan kitchen/living room, comprising a country-style fitted kitchen and dining room. French doors open to a small and easily manageable enclosed courtyard garden situated to the front of the property. * Steps lead up from to dining area to a comfortable sitting room and to the generous double bedroom, with fitted wardrobes. There is a good-sized shower room with walk-in shower situated adjacent to the bedroom. * The annexe, which was historically the old Wainhouse for the farm, has previously had holiday let status, which could be reinstated subject to the necessary permissions.

The Outside
* The property is approached off a quiet country lane with a short access track over an area of Common Land, leading to an electric gated entrance. The drive opens to a large courtyard where there is ample parking, a double garage and double car port. * The large, detached barn currently provides good storage, workshop space and additional garaging. Planning was granted last year for conversion to a holiday let at first floor level, ref: P230318/F. * To the rear of the house is an enclosed and sheltered courtyard which is a veritable sun trap. This area was originally the old cattle yard, and the feed trough remains as an historical feature. There is a detached studio within the courtyard with scope for a variety of uses such as a gym, workroom, or artist’s studio.

The Outside (Continued)
