Property Description: This beautifully presented detached, Grade II listed farmhouse dates back to 1635 and is steeped in history with original features throughout. The property has been sympathetically modernised by the current owners to create a wonderful family home with an expertly crafted blend of contemporary and traditional charm.

You enter the property over flagstone flooring into the impressive double height entrance hallway with original beams and exposed brickwork instantly highlighting the history of this property. The entrance hallway gives access to the principal rooms and the cellar.

The flagstone flooring continues into the recently renovated shaker kitchen which is beautifully in-keeping with the style of the property. The kitchen has been finished to an exceptional standard with granite countertops, Mielle appliances and a Brittania range cooker. There is also a large breakfast bar, ideal for casual dining and entertaining.

The living room is a grand 27ft x 13ft with exposed beams and a magnificent inglenook fireplace at its centre. Double doors lead out onto the terrace creating a versatile space ideal for hosting family gatherings and entertaining guests. Off the living room are two further reception rooms currently used as a snug and a home office, providing flexibility to be utilised depending on your families needs. The formal dining room is across the entrance hallway and there is a useful cloakroom.

Upstairs there are four well appointed bedrooms, each showcasing the enchanting original features of the property. The second bedroom has a double height vaulted ceiling with exposed beams and an open fireplace and the single bedroom has an inglenook fireplace. The principal bedroom has an ensuite shower room and there is an additional family bathroom with an elegant free standing roll top bath.

Outside: Set back from the road and secluded by trees providing privacy, the house is approached via a gravel drive with parking for several vehicles. There is a detached double garage accessed via a secure gate at the end of the garden, with two additional parking spaces in front. The property sits in just under a third of an acre and is enveloped by an established wrap around garden enclosed in ragstone walls. The immaculate lawn, adorned with mature fruit trees, provides a serene retreat for outdoor activities whilst the large south-facing terrace provides an ideal spot for al fresco dining.
