Glebe Farmhouse, a Grade II listed family home dating from 1722, is a stunning example of period charm blended with contemporary comforts, offering four double bedrooms, off-road parking and a beautifully landscaped, south-facing garden well situated in the desirable village of Preston.

Ground Floor - The property’s accommodation is spacious and flexible with multiple reception rooms and an optional ensuite bedroom on the ground floor. The accommodation throughout has been modernised whilst retaining its classic features such as exposed beams, deep bay windows, and original fireplaces.

The welcoming entrance hall gives way to the ground floor, to the right it flows through into the two generously proportioned reception rooms both spanning the depth of the property with bay windows to the front and log burning stoves.

Beyond the reception rooms is the contemporary open plan living kitchen, a wonderful space featuring underfloor heating and a variety of integrated appliances. A set of bi-fold doors open out to the rear patio extending the living space and creating that much sought-after indoor/outdoor flow.
