Description
Home Farm is a wonderful example of an extended Victorian farmhouse, that occupies a delightful position on the edge of the picturesque rural village of Pettistree.  Being of the Victorian era, Home Farm still benefits from the ‘grandeur’ of that architecture, offering well proportioned rooms throughout with good ceiling heights and large windows providing plenty of light.

In recent years the vendors have commissioned a programme of renovation and refurbishment with the principal works taking place in the kitchen; this area is now a wonderful, multi-functional family area with well fitted kitchen including a double hob Aga, breakfast bar and Quartz worksurfaces, which opens into a spacious dining and seating area with French doors providing access to the patio and gardens.  The boot/utility room has also been refurbished in a similar fashion and benefits from a laundry chute from the principal bedroom.  The remainder of the house has been redecorated and new flooring introduced throughout. 

Outside Home Farm extends to nearly 3 acres (1.19 hectares) in all, with a large shingle driveway to the front of the property and formal gardens to the side and rear.  The rear garden benefits from a large patio area that can be accessed from the kitchen/dining room, sitting room and utility room, and beyond this is the garden that is predominantly laid to grass for ease of maintenance.  Facing in a south-westerly direction this area enjoys the sun throughout the afternoon and into the evening. 

Beyond the garden is the fenced and railed paddock with water trough, which has a separate vehicular access onto Grove Road, and extends to nearly 2.5 acres (1 hectare).
