A quintessential Grade II listed 17th century farm house.
Description
Built of mellow brick and timber, Double Gate Farm occupies an enviable plot in the sought-after village of Bushley. As well as the main farmhouse, it boasts a separate contemporary studio/workplace and a two bedroomed annexe in the former Dairy. Surrounded by beautiful, semi-formal gardens it also enjoys wonderful rural views to the rear. In addition, there is an opportunity to acquire a further two acres of adjoining amenity land by separate negotiation.
The Farmhouse
The main residence has great character and charm. The light and spacious rooms lend themselves perfectly to family life and provide a total of 2725 sq ft of versatile living space.
A charming, traditional porch takes you into the welcoming entrance hall with its impressive staircase. The hall gives direct access to the two bright and attractive sitting rooms and the impressive fully fitted, country style kitchen with its wonderful Swedish wood-burning stove. This in turn leads to a pretty garden room which opens to the main terrace (a perfect spot for enjoying morning coffee) and a useful utility room.
The first floor consists of three large bedrooms, a family bathroom, and a separate shower room. A central stair gives access to the second floor which is full of character and provides two more excellent rooms, a kitchenette and a play area, and generous storage.
The Dairy
The Dairy sits to the rear of the house and has been cleverly converted into a generous two-bedroomed annexe with a floor area of 1171 sq ft. Designed as an 'upside-down house' the open plan first floor comprises a spacious sitting room, dining space and fitted kitchen. The ground floor offers a spacious, full width flagstone hall and two generous double bedrooms, one of which has an en suite shower room. A family bathroom completes the accommodation. The Dairy is ideal for hosting guests, or for use as a granny annexe, holiday cottage or rental investment, and the semi-private garden offers a useful degree of privacy and independent living. In total 1171 sq ft of space.
The Studio
The superb, architect designed, double-height home studio is the crowning feature of the property. With its own 948 sq ft of light and calming space it provides the ultimate working environment. The principal studio area is a spectacular double height space which enjoys lovely views to the front and back via full-height doors and windows. A fitted kitchen and shower room complete the ground floor accommodation, and the first floor offers a further study/workspace and generous storage.
The useful outbuildings comprise a large machinery store, ideal for mowers and other heavy equipment, a workshop, a substantial covered log store, a potting/tool shed and an outside shower room and cloakroom facility.
The garden is a wonderful extension of the farm house. Lovingly tended by the current owners it is principally laid to lawn and surrounded by eye-catching herbaceous beds and an array of mature trees, shrubs, annuals and topiary. Hugging the property on all sides, it creates a series of themed areas including two very attractive seating terraces, a thriving kitchen garden, fruit trees and a small woodland area which is a rich haven for birds and wildlife.
Location
