The house has evolved over the years to provide a combination of cosy and more elegant rooms, at the heart of which lies a welcoming farmhouse kitchen. With a vaulted ceiling and created using reclaimed beams, the room blends with the older part of the house.
A very generous reception hall to the centre give access to the reception space. The drawing room is an elegant room with a fireplace to one corner and, in tandem with the dining room, provides a perfect entertaining space. Being double aspect, both are bright rooms.
Occupying the older part of the house, the relaxed sitting room has a beamed ceiling and deep inglenook fireplace with a wood-burning stove. The adjoining study area has a superb elevated outlook across the garden and countryside.
There are three double bedrooms on the first floor, including the generous principal bedroom with its dressing room and en suite shower room. The second floor provides a further two double bedrooms. Additionally, there is a family bathroom on the first floor and a useful shower room on the ground floor.
Dane Court Farm House is approached through an electric gate opening to a driveway leading to plenty of parking next to the house.
The house is positioned overlooking its lovely gardens, both from inside the property and from a raised terrace and deck either side of the house.
The gardens are laid to lawn with plenty of nature planting and trees, including a mature walnut tree. The lower section of the garden is home to an orchard and there is a greenhouse.
A wonderful feature of the outside space is the swimming pool which is enclosed by a wall and a mellow brick outbuilding of some size. Sheltered and private, yet well situated close to the house, it provides a fantastic area to enjoy as a family or to entertain, surrounded by climbing roses and other established planting. The outbuilding offers potential for use as ancillary accommodation if desired, subject to any necessary consents, and currently houses the changing rooms and pump room and well as a stable and garage.
