Property description & features
- Tenure: Freehold
DESCRIPTION
A Grade II Listed double fronted period farmhouse with local rubble stone elevations and stone mullion windows and doorcase under a Cotswold stone tile roof. The property was extensively refurbished and extended in 2008, as well as creating wheelchair access from the garage/parking area through the garden and ground floor of the property. A metal gate gives pedestrian access through grand stone gateposts leading to the front door via a pretty, formal par terre front garden and seating area. Internally, the property has a wealth of period features, having the original stone surround fireplaces, window seats, and exposed stone walls in the reception rooms at the front of the house, either side of the central hallway. A corridor at the rear leads through to the kitchen/breakfast room with a vaulted ceiling and an Aga fitted into the original stone fire surround. At the far end of the house is a utility room and shower room. Off the kitchen is a later extension forming a lovely garden room, with double aspect windows and double door opening onto the garden. An external workshop ha the boiler and can re-connect into the main house through a closed off door, allowing for a fourth bedroom or living room.
A staircase in the hall leads to the first floor with a spacious landing with two storage cupboards. A main bedroom with a large en suite bathroom sits at one side of the house and at the far side is a bathroom and a further double bedroom. A staircase leads up to an unconverted attic space with potential to convert to further accommodation, subject to the necessary consents.
The west facing garden is a real treasure, having been lovingly designed and maintained. A large paved patio leads up to a level lawn with formal square topiary around measured tree planting. There is a small storage outbuilding and to the rear of garden, with access from a rear lane, is a garage with electric up and over door leading to a further parking area and storage space.
