Grade II listed farmhouse with excellent countryside views.

Description

Holbrook Hall is a Grade II listed farmhouse which dates back to the 17th century. It is of traditional rendered timber framed construction with pantiled roof and the property proudly sits in an elevated position with a commanding view over farmland to both the front and rear aspects.

The current owners have renovated the property and the centrepiece is a stunning and recently installed kitchen and utility room, complete with built in John Lewis appliances as well as a Bertazonni range style oven set underneath stylish granite work surfaces.

The house contains many fine period features such as the inglenook fireplaces and exposed beams but with the advantage of later extensions to create ample family sized accommodation. The option of a guest/annexe wing is in place on the ground floor with a bedroom and shower room should purchasers want to use it for multi-generational living. On the first floor there are three further double bedrooms including the principal room with a cloakroom en suite and a newly refitted shower room to service the remaining rooms.
