Features and description
A sympathetically restored detached Grade II Listed former farmhouse which overlooks the village green. The house offers charming, spacious and versatile living accommodation which includes a host of lovely character features including exposed timbers, flagstone flooring, and a superb inglenook fireplace. The rear thatch was replaced in 2019 and the front thatch is new in the summer of 2025.
The fine cross-passage hallway leads to an inner hall which gives access to the principal ground floor rooms. At the western end of the house is a large dual aspect drawing room with a panelled wall and a fireplace, wooden flooring, a window seat and an exposed ceiling beam. This opens into a snug with wooden flooring, useful cupboards and a pair of stained glass doors into a south facing garden room. In addition to this room is a sitting room and a fabulous dining room with an enormous inglenook fireplace. This leads to an attractively fitted kitchen with a range cooker. Beyond this is a boot room, a utility room, and a wet room with under-floor heating. There is also a separate cloakroom off the inner hall. There are two separate staircases accessing the first floor where there are 4 bedrooms and a beautifully appointed bathroom with a freestanding clawfoot bath. The light and airy master bedroom enjoys a triple-aspect and exposed beams.
Outside are front and rear gardens, south facing to the rear where there are raised beds and a verandah. There is plenty of parking in front of the barn (which is attached to the neighbour's barn) which is subdivided into two good-sized workshops (with potential for a stable) and a garage. The loft space above this is accessed by a staircase and provides additional useful space. On the eastern side of the house and behind the barn is a large paddock providing valuable amenity space ideal for children and pets, and an aluminium greenhouse.
The house has mains water and electricity. There is oil fired central heating and a recently installed private drainage treatment unit.
