The property offers excellent and beautifully presented accommodation, full of period character with a wealth of exposed timbers and beams, fireplaces and exposed brickwork.

The lovely country kitchen/breakfast room is triple aspect and has a range of fitted units with polished granite worktops over, double Butler's sink, range cooker, central island with second sink, breakfast sitting area with fitted seating, red brick tiled floor and a door to the side.

The double aspect sitting room is located at the front of the house and full of character with exposed beams, wooden flooring and a fantastic wide inglenook fireplace with bressummer beam above. The dining room is also double aspect and has exposed timbers, wooden flooring and an attractive brick fireplace. A door leads through to a small reception area to the rear (ideal as a study/library) and a ground floor shower room.

On the first floor the attractive galleried landing gives access to the five bedrooms and a family bathroom. The principal bedroom has windows to the front and benefits from a walk-in wardrobe.

The Annexe:
Adjacent to the main house there is a detached brick built single storey annexe which provides an open plan living/dining room with kitchen area, two bedrooms and a shower room. The main bedroom has a vaulted ceiling with exposed beams and double doors opening onto the garden.

Gardens and Grounds:
The farmhouse is approached via a five bar gated entrance over a gravel driveway leading to the house and parking area. The gardens and grounds enjoy fantastic views over the surrounding countryside and include formal lawned areas, and a large paved terrace to the rear of the house leading to a detached brick built building/laundry room.

Secondary vehicular access leads to the detached stable building, of timber construction under a tiled roof, which currently comprises a home office, studio, store room, stable and plant room. There are further outbuildings which include a detached brick and timber garage/workshop building and substantial open tractor sheds and store.

The land includes two ponds (one to the rear of the stable building), fields and an area of woodland. In all about 12.86 acres.
