Beautifully situated Grade II listed farmhouse with stables, outbuildings, fields and woodland totalling over 18 acres.
Old Forge Farm is a beautifully situated Grade II listed timber framed farmhouse, dating in part from the late 16th century or early 17th century with later 20th century additions. The property is set well back from the lane amidst its attractive gardens and surrounding land and woodland, totalling just over 18 acres together with a range of outbuildings including an American barn with Hancox stabling.
The pretty farmhouse accommodation retains a wealth of charm and character, with many exposed beams and timbers and vaulted ceilings to a number of the bedrooms. The front door opens to the reception hall which is open to the pitch with a wide oak staircase rising up to the first floor and a separate access to the one room cellar. Dual aspect reception rooms include family and sitting rooms, the latter with an inglenook fireplace and both having inset wood burning stoves.
The kitchen/dining room, with underfloor heating, is very well proportioned and equipped with a range of cupboards, a freestanding dresser, a Rangemaster, a dishwasher and washing machine. There is a an adjoining utility room which houses the boiler and a WC. The first floor is accessed via two separate staircases, where there is a total of three bedrooms which are served by three attractive bath and shower rooms, all being fully tiled with under floor heating.
Old Forge Farm is approached via an electric gate, with the drive leading to the outbuildings, in front of which is ample parking and turning. The gardens are laid to lawn and interspersed with specimen trees and there is a substantial terrace and two water features. There is an Alitex greenhouse and a former kitchen garden with raised beds.
Equestrian facilities include the substantial American barn which incorporates eight Hancox stables with automatic waters, a tack room, kitchen, WC and store room. There is a further four bay barn which houses a diesel generator and has parking for three cars. Adjacent to the gardens are six enclosed paddocks with water connected. There are two further fields to the south and a wide belt of woodland provides screening for the property.
