Located in a quiet country lane Babshole Farm is a charming 16th century Farmhouse which has been sympathetically renovated by the current vendors, yet retains many original features, these include exposed timbers, feature wood and tiled floors. The ground floor accommodation includes an entrance hallway which provides access into two of the four reception rooms, both dual aspect with Inglenook fireplaces and exposed timbers. A

The kitchen/breakfast room, designed by Mark Wilkinson, includes granite worktops, built-in appliances and feature breakfast bar, a 5-oven Aga and flagstone floor. There is also a walk-in pantry, cloakroom and a rear porch/boot room which offers utility space. An inner hallway leads into a library/home office with solid wood bookshelves, beyond which is the garden room which features underfloor heating.

The principal bedroom suite offers a good range of fitted wardrobes, a spacious en-suite bathroom with freestanding bath and separate shower and feature cast iron fireplace. Bedroom two also has an en-suite shower and there are three further double bedrooms which are well served by two further stylish bathrooms both with freestanding baths and separate showers. The second floor has a double bedroom with vaulted ceiling and eaves storage.

The property is approached by a private gated access and there are two further gated accesses onto the land for vehicular access to the paddocks. To the front a central courtyard leads to a detached Barn, which was a former Dairy, with black weatherboarded elevations under a pantiled roof. At one end is a large 48ft. storage space, which was the milking room, with double doors at one end and a further storage area which could be utilised as office space. To the right hand side is an impressive games room with a bespoke bar to one corner and a cloakroom, this whole space has surround-sound. Adjacent is another storage room and beside the barn is a detached double garage with pitched roof and automated door. Surrounded by beautiful south facing gardens, the whole plot is in excess of 6 acres with views over open farmland. There are paved sun terraces to the rear of the property, flower and shrub borders with specimen and mature trees and well-tended lawns. An original Well is featured with a cast iron pump. The paddocks to the rear are fenced and divided into three sections, ideal for equestrian use. There is a useful detached Workshop with power and light connected, a garden shed and a natural pond. We understand a Public Footpath is located to the rear of the plot.
