Orange Farm is a remarkable country retreat that exudes charm and elegance, with a rich history spanning back to the 18th century. This magnificent property has undergone extensive renovations and expansions over the years, resulting in a splendid living space that offers both rural tranquility and village allure.

The main house of Orange Farm is a two-storey Georgian masterpiece, adorned with a multitude of sash windows and magnificent Georgian-style pillars that grace its front entrance. Nestled within formal gardens, the house overlooks a sun terrace and a sprawling lawn adorned with well-established flowerbeds, showcasing an array of lush shrubs and trees. As you enter through the rear, you are greeted by a delightful feature - a charming wishing well that adds a touch of magic to the courtyard area.

Stepping into the main house through leaded light double doors, you are welcomed into an exquisite entrance hall that seamlessly leads into a grand wooden panelled reception hall. Pass the oak staircase, you will discover a majestic formal dining room and a mahogany panelled library, connected by a cozy TV room. From here, you can access the spacious, bright, and airy reception room, perfect for entertaining guests.

At the opposite end of the house, accessed through a wooden panelled hallway from the reception hall, lies the kitchen/breakfast room, complete with a larder, pantry, and adjoining utility room and boot room. This area also houses a study with a picturesque view of the expansive garden.

Venturing to the first-floor galleried landing via the oak staircase, you will find five generous double bedrooms, including a luxurious master bedroom boasting its own dressing room and en suite bathroom. For added convenience, there is also a separate bathroom and shower room.

In addition to the main house, Orange Farm offers a collection of other buildings. A converted barn provides the perfect accommodation for family members or visitors, featuring a spacious open plan kitchen/diner/family room, two bedrooms, and a bathroom. The grounds also boast a studio/gym and an exceptionally large greenhouse.

As you enter the property through wooden electronic gates, a sweeping driveway leads you past a beautifully manicured lawned area to a courtyard parking area and two sets of triple garages. The driveway is lined with majestic lime trees, creating a grand entrance befitting this extraordinary property. The front of the property is shielded by a laurel hedge and a line of lime trees, ensuring privacy from neighboring properties. The front gardens are adorned with a variety of shrubs in flowerbeds, adding a vibrant touch.

The entire plot spans approximately 5 acres, with the formal gardens occupying a significant portion. Just outside the main entrance, the sun terrace is framed by a boxed hedge area, featuring a delightful array of trees and large rose bushes leading to an octagonal summerhouse with windows on all eight sides and a tiled floor. Walking across the sun terrace, you will find a grassed area with well-established flowerbeds and small trees. Beyond the boxed hedging areas lies a meticulously maintained large lawn, with footpaths leading to various other parts of the garden.
