Midgell Farm is set is a truly delightful, rural location. It ceased to be a working farm in 2004 when the present owners purchased the property. At the time it was in need of complete restoration. The property is discreetly tucked from the road at the end of a 0.25 mile approach, surrounded by countryside, over which are extensive open views to wooded hills and across to the 12th Century St Bridget's church. Of the many original features there are solid oak and flagstone floors, inglenook fireplaces, cast iron grates, vaulted ceilings with exposed timbers, panelled and tongue and groove oak doors with iron latch furniture and window shutters. The rooms have a lovely outlook over countryside and the interior has a warm and friendly atmosphere with comfortable ceiling heights.

The rooms are all of a very good proportion with both principal reception rooms with shuttered French windows opening to the garden with open views of the surrounding countryside. The sitting room has a fireplace with a stone surround and a log burning stove. The dining room has a stone inglenook fireplace with raised open inset fire and bread oven. The study overlooks the entrance drive and rear garden. The family room is beyond the rear hall which gives access to a rear porch, shower room and utility room. This room also features an impressive inglenook fireplace and chimney breast fitted with a log burning stove and bread oven. A mezzanine floor over is accessed via a timber ladder. The kitchen with a four oven Aga is fitted with an excellent range of hand crafted solid wood painted units and granite work surfaces including a substantial island unit. Integrated appliances include a hob, oven and dishwasher. An wide arch opens to a breakfast/garden room with superb views and two pairs of French windows open to the garden. On the first floor the principal bedroom has French windows opening onto a cantilevered timber wide balcony with extensive views to the south and west. The en suite dressing room is fitted with wardrobes and gives access to the bath/ shower room with views. There is a split level landing giving access to three further bedrooms and a family bath/shower room.

From the long access driveway, the entrance sweeps around the front garden to the side of the house and to a large parking area for several vehicles. The rear garden is laid to lawn and the attractive front garden wraps around the house to the south and east and is enclosed, in part, by a stone wall, park railing and dense Beech hedgerow. The garden is laid to extensive level lawn and the wide open views span almost 180 degrees. Mature trees intersperse the lawn and include a Weeping Ash, Sycamore, Holly and Cherry. There are roses, Spring bulbs, a variety of shrubs and recently planted fruit trees including pear and apple. Surrounding the house are flagstone and tarmac pathways and immediately outside the breakfast/garden room is a flagstone area ideal for entertaining with wonderful open views over its lawn. Outbuilding In the parking area adjacent to the drive, is a stone and tiled outbuilding once comprising two stables and a tack room. It provides the potential for a home office, subject to the necessary consents.

Beyond the garden lies an area of paddock with a beautiful Oak tree housing a large treehouse and to the far side of the property further land may be purchased to include a quality Andrews Bowen 52 x 26 metre arena, extending the overall land holding to circa 12 acres.
