Charming period house, previously the village B&B, with a detached barn.
Description
A prominent four bedroom listed village house with a substantial unconverted detached barn located in the heart of this popular village.
Dating back to the early 16th century with later additions and alterations, Argyll House is a charming timber-framed and plastered house and until recently operated as a popular bed and breakfast. The house provides balanced, family accommodation and is being sold with no onward chain.
The property has been tastefully decorated in neutral tones throughout with the accommodation thoughtfully arranged over two levels working as a practical family home but also allowing the option to have separate living quarters. The property provides some wonderful period detail associated with its age and includes three ground floor reception rooms with the principle reception room enjoying views over the west-facing garden. Entrance to the property is to the front through a welcoming entrance lobby with an inner hall and a cloakroom. There is a practical kitchen fitted with a collection of light-coloured units and a walk-in pantry. To the first floor there are four bedrooms with two of the bedrooms providing en suite shower facilities and W.C. The principal three bedrooms all benefit from full air-conditioning (both heating and cooling). To the far side of the house are two further bedrooms, a family bathroom and separate cloakroom.
Outside
The property enjoys a landscaped west-facing garden offering a collection of flowers and shrubs providing all-year round colour along with a delightful secluded seating area to the rear corner.
To the side of the house is a purpose-built storage and laundry with mains electricity, water and drainage. There is a substantial unconverted detached barn with a first floor level also with mains electricity, water and drainage connected. The barn provides a wonderful opportunity to be converted and utilised as a work-from-home space, annexe or an extension of the main house (subject to the necessary planning consents). An access road (maintained by the local authority) leads to the detached barn and private parking for several vehicles.
To the front of the property is a walled garden with views towards the parish church and village centre.
