Description

Occupying the most tranquil and idyllic location, surrounded by gently undulating fields, Red House Farm is an attractive period house within about 3.6 acres, with beautiful gardens and an excellent outbuilding. Believed to date from the late 16th century and Grade II listed for special architectural and historic interest, Red House Farm retains many superb period features, including exposed timbers and studwork, while balancing comfortable family living.

Internally the accommodation flows exceptionally well comprising elegantly proportioned, light-filled rooms. The ground floor consists of three principal reception rooms, kitchen/dining area, study and annexe, with a further five bedrooms on the first and second floor.

The family room, at the heart of the house, and the double aspect sitting room both feature impressive inglenook fireplaces with inset wood burning stoves, and fine views over the front garden; the double aspect snug offers a further, more relaxed space.

The delightful farmhouse kitchen has an AGA, separate electric oven and hob, butler-style sink and hand built wooden cabinetry providing ample storage; the dining area offers a great entertaining space.

Beyond the kitchen is the annexe, consisting of a double bedroom, office/sitting room, a utility, which can easily be used as a kitchen, and a bathroom. Bi-folding doors open out to a private decking area.

The generous first floor landing has wonderful wide floorboards and leads to four bedrooms and the family bathroom. The double aspect principal bedroom has a superb vaulted ceiling, far-reaching field views, and an adjoining lavatory (subject to necessary consents, there is scope to create an en suite shower room). There is a further bedroom on the second floor with a dressing room/study.

Grounds
Red House Farm has beautiful grounds in around 3.61 acres; to the front of the building is a verdant formal lawn, with shrub and herbaceous borders, an array of mature trees, and an idyllic pond. To the rear are courtyards and terraces, ideal for alfresco dining, and paddocks.

The handsome red brick barn has been converted into an excellent space comprising a useful garage/store, which has been used as a gym by our clients; and a capacious games studio/cinema. There is also a workshop/garage and an oak built cart lodge with an electric charging point. Red House Farm has extensive parking for numerous cars.
