A beautiful and charming Grade II Listed four bedroom detached farmhouse and self-contained one bedroom annexe located on a generous 1.67 acre plot in a tranquil and scenic position surrounding by lovely open countryside with far reaching views. The property has undergone a range of improvements whilst retaining an abundance of period and character features, to include new hardwood sash windows, a newly fitted country-style kitchen and solar panels which help to reduce energy bills, with excellent opportunity for further modernisation and development if desired. There is the added benefit of a two-storey barn and a range of stone outbuildings which offer conversion and development potential subject to the relevant planning permissions.

Internally and to the ground floor the property comprises a welcoming hall accessed via the front porch, with doors to the two main reception rooms offering generous for furniture each with feature fireplaces housing log burners and front aspect windows. To the rear is a hallway with a set of stairs leading to the first floor landing and giving access to the country-style kitchen, which has been newly fitted with a range of contemporary shaker-style wall and base units, complementing worktops, a small breakfast bar and a range of integral appliances, enjoying countryside views to the rear aspect. Completing the main house ground floor is a third reception room which would be ideal for use as a home office, a snug or a playroom also featuring countryside views, and a modern two piece cloakroom WC.

To the first floor a bright landing gives access to four spacious double bedrooms each providing ample space for furniture with the master bedroom having its own en-suite bathroom, and there is a family bathroom suite currently in need of completion, giving the new owner the opportunity to finish to their taste.

The annexe is set on the ground floor with its own entrance door and comprises a reception room, a well-appointed kitchen, a bathroom suite and stairs to a first floor double sized bedroom.

Externally the property sits on a large 1.67 acre plot with access via a shared unadopted road, boasting well-presented front and rear gardens, a decked terrace for outdoor sitting, dining and entertaining, a large driveway providing ample parking space in addition to a carport, two stone outbuildings, a non-converted barn and an extensive 1.28 acre grazing land ideal for outdoor activities or agriculture.
