The Property
This handsome farmhouse, which dates from the early 19th Century, is built of local limestone, with ashlar parapets and chimneys, beneath a tiled roof. It is Listed Grade II. The attached coach house has a brick front and a Collyweston slate roof.

The house and neighbouring farm has been occupied by the Childs family since 1920 and is now coming to the market for the first time in over 100 years. The property is ready for new custodians to carry out some repairs and sympathetic modernisation, to bring it into the 21st Century. There is a possibility of creating a fantastic family home with wonderful proportions, over-looking its own land.

The sizeable accommodation is set over two floors and is largely in original condition. It offers well-proportioned rooms, with high ceilings, sash windows and large, panelled doors. The entrance hall, with its wide front door with fanlight above, is reputed to have a stone floor beneath the carpet. There are formal reception rooms either side, each with a fireplace and a shuttered sash windows.

There is a storeroom off the hall, which might make a small study. There is a sizeable cellar beneath the ground floor.

The kitchen is a proper farmhouse size and style. It has a flagstone floor and an inglenook which houses the Rayburn. There is a useful pantry to one side. A door opens to the rear hall and back stairs, and also leads into the boiler room. The boot room offers space for appliances and the family clobber and pets.

There are two staircases to the first floor. The main stairs lead from the hall to the landing, which serves each of the six bedrooms and the bathroom. The servants stairs rise from the back hall. There are four beautifully proportioned bedrooms, two smaller bedrooms and a large bathroom.

The coach house is attached to the farmhouse and is a traditional brick-fronted Victorian building with vehicle store on the ground floor and hayloft above.

The house shares the gateway from the roadside and the has its own driveway leading to the yard and coach house. The gardens extend to the south and west. Beyond the formal garden is an old pond set within the woodland. The paddock is enclosed by stone walling and stock fencing.
