Key information
Property description & features
- Tenure: Freehold
Orchard House is a totally unique home, formally the gardener’s residence, is situated on a very private south facing plot which extends to just under four acres of partially walled grounds. The house sits beyond expansive lawns with many of the fruit trees still in situ as a nod to what once was an orchard. The walled garden gives way to a further lawn and woodland area while the long sweeping driveway reaches a large stone outbuilding currently used as a workshop beyond which is a timber garage and potting shed.
The owners also have access to the beautiful parkland which often has sheep and lambs grazing throughout the spring time making for the most delightful rural setting.
The current owners have planning permission granted to extend the stone workshop which could provide annex accommodation to the main house. They have also had architects drawings to extend the main residence plus a letter from the planning department giving very positive pre application advice in respect of this.
Step Inside - The single storey accommodation has a wonderful flow and enjoys the most peaceful sense of light and space throughout. The entire home enjoys some really beautiful features such as pretty gothic window panes and wooden window shutters, lovely panelled doors and polished floors.
Stepping into a reception hallway, access to the dining kitchen, drawing room and laundry/washroom can be found.
The dining kitchen has a semi vaulted ceiling complete with large roof lights which bathes the room in natural sunlight. Simple painted floor standing cabinets provide plenty of storage along with integrated appliances including two multi-function ovens, an electric hob and a dishwasher, with wooden work surfaces over which provide plenty of prep space. Windows to the rear overlook a charming private woodland where nature can be observed at its very best.
A useful pantry is lined with shelves and currently houses a freestanding fridge freezer beside which sits a water softener.
There is plenty of space for the largest of dining tables beyond which, further in-built storage cupboards can be found.
Across the hallway is a most useful laundry room with space for the washing machine and tumble dryer. Within the room is also a large shower enclosure, a loo and a wash hand basin. There are two full height storage cupboards, one of which houses the oil-fired central heating boiler.
The drawing room with its polished mahogany floorboards is beautifully proportioned and flooded with natural light thanks to windows on two elevations and bi folding doors which open to a charming walled terrace. In-built bookshelves and a lovely sandstone fireplace housing an open fire gives a delightful focal point to this charming room.
And So To Bed..... - There are three beautiful double bedrooms. The principal bedroom has views across the easterly aspect and an en suite bathroom with a panelled bath, wash hand basin and a loo.
Bedrooms two and three each have in built wardrobes and storage and enjoy beautiful views across the south facing grounds.
Step Outside - Passing through an ornate iron gateway, a sweeping driveway cuts though the open pasture land before meeting a further gateway to the north side of the Hall. Moving beyond the Cedar garden with neatly manicured hedges, we find stone pillars and the private driveway to Casewick Orchard. Continuing through wonderfully expansive lawns, past a natural pond and onto a walled garden and orchard beyond sits this lovely home. In total the grounds are approaching 4 acres with a large workshop with power and water which also has planning permission to be extended to the easterly side for annex accommodation if required.
Beyond the stone workshop is a timber gardeners store with open bay and enclosed storage space.
