Description
Reputed to be the oldest house in the much sought after village of Chipperfield, dating back in part to the 16th Century and is offered for sale with no upper chain.
The Pale Farm is a lovely example of an early Tudor timber framed house and would have originally been the farmhouse for one of the larger farms in the area. Descendants of US President Jimmy Carter also once owned The Palm Farm and extensively farmed the local area. It was one hoped that President Crater would visit the house but sadly this never happened.
The property is Grade II* listed and retains many period features including the impressive square chimney above the inglenook, oak internal doors and exposed timbers throughout.
The property was also once owned by the Blackwell family (Crosse & Blackwell) and a large 'B' can still be seen on the weathervane over the barn.
The extensive and flexible accommodation in the main house extends to around 4,000 sq ft is as shown in the floor plans but of note are the impressive drawing and dining room and magnificent, vaulted kitchen/family room with underfloor heating, tiled floors and double gas fired Aga.
On the ground floor is the self contained, two bedroom annex, adding to the versatility of this wonderful home.
There is also a large timber framed barn of about 1,300 sq that would make the perfect home for a car collection or possibly a home office set up. The barn also houses a garage and workshop and there is a gravelled driveway with additional parking space.
The delightful gardens and grounds extend to around 0.5 acre with gated access from the The Street. In front of The Pale Farm are raised floral beds and a very useful kitchen garden. To the rear the gardens have been thoughtfully designed with areas of lawn and hidden walkways and secret garden rooms.
Location
The Pale Farm is located in the centre of the village with its cricket pitch, four pubs and local cafes and village store. There is also an excellent Primary school.
Access to London and the main road and rail network is excellent with the M25 accessible at junctions 18 and 20 and the railway stations of Chorleywood (Mainline service to Marylebone and Metropolitan Underground to Baker Street and The City) or Kings Langley (serving Euston), within 6 miles and 2½ miles respectively. Heathrow, via the M25 and M4, is about 22 miles.
Square Footage: 4,138 sq ft
Acreage: 0.56 Acres
