Lovingly refurbished by the current owners, The Hermitage showcases elegant interiors rich in charm and period detailing, from original shutters and sash windows to decorative fireplaces and painted floorboards.

Accommodation
The Main House

The accommodation is traditionally arranged over two floors and begins with a welcoming reception hall, with a cloakroom and doors leading to the principal reception rooms. The dining hall is a warm, characterful space centred around a striking feature fireplace, with original shutters, a window seat, and a hidden drinks cabinet.

From here, a door leads into the kitchen/breakfast room, which is impressively appointed with classic shaker-style cabinetry, a recessed AGA, central island, and walk-in pantry—an ideal hub for family life and entertaining.

The living room is a generous, triple-aspect space with garden views and a wood-burning stove—perfect for cosy evenings. A rear boot room provides practical storage and links both front and rear gardens, as well as offering internal access to the adjoining annexe through an internal lobby.
On the first floor, a bright and airy landing provides access to four bedrooms and the family bathroom. The principal bedroom enjoys dual aspects, bespoke fitted wardrobes, and a stylish en-suite shower room with a walk-in shower. Bedrooms two and three are spacious doubles with charming outlooks and vanity basins, while bedroom four offers a cosy single room with built-in bed—ideal as a child’s room or home office. The family bathroom is fitted with a four-piece suite, offering both bath and shower facilities.

The Annexe
With its own independent access, the well-appointed annexe provides excellent flexibility for multi-generational living, guest accommodation, or as a holiday/Airbnb rental. The layout comprises a kitchen/dining room, a comfortable sitting room, and a generous double bedroom with garden access and a stylish en-suite bathroom fitted with a four-piece suite.

Gardens & Grounds
The outdoor space is a true highlight of this home. To the front, the property is approached via an ornate gated driveway providing substantial off-road parking, bordered by pretty mature cottage-style planting.
To the rear, the expansive traditional English walled gardens provide total privacy and have been beautifully maintained with lawns, fruit trees, colourful borders, and numerous seating areas—perfect for outdoor dining and entertaining. Outbuildings include a garden store, log store, summerhouse, and gardener’s WC. There is also an additional parcel of garden, accessed via the neighbouring property (details available upon request).
