Beautifully appointed thatched house in idyllic setting.
Positioned in an elevated spot, in the heart of the village, Bank Farm House is a beautiful thatched house offering a seamless blend of character charm and modern convenience. Having been owned by the current vendors since it's construction by a local award winning builder 18 years ago, this unique home has been lovingly maintained and sympathetically improved to preserve its period features while enhancing its functionality for contemporary living.
Upon entering, the majority of the ground floor has an open plan style and is flooded with natural light, perfect for family living. The sitting room is charming, light and spacious with the stone fireplace and wood burner drawing a focal point. The kitchen is facilitated by a Rayburn cooker and separate oven, breakfast island, room for free standing appliances and plenty of workspace and cupboard storage. Double doors lead out to the decked area, perfect for alfresco dining. The dining area is spacious too, ideal for evening entertaining. In addition there is a utility room with separate Butler sink, downstairs cloak room and WC. The ground floor is facilitated throughout by under floor heating. On the lower ground floor is the current cinema room. Another handy reception room with potential and flexibility for other internal uses.
Upstairs, the principal bedroom is generous including an en suite bathroom and plenty of built in wardrobe space. There are three further double bedrooms, one with an en suite shower room, and two served by a well-appointed Jack and Jill bathroom. All benefit from built in storage and wonderful outlooks too.
Outside, a standout feature of this property is the separate annexe, benefitting from more versatility and potential. Currently configured with a kitchen, sitting room/ bedroom and bathroom, this is an ideal set up for a variety of different uses: guest accommodation, secondary income or even a stylish home office. A workshop and double garage are also connected.
The gardens are serene, surrounded by stunning and peaceful views of the countryside. Mostly laid to lawn, low maintenance and framed by an abundance of mature trees and hedging, outside hut with seating and heater (available via separate negotiation) and patio area, it is a private oasis perfect for summer gatherings. Gated gravelled driveway and ample parking space for numerous cars.

I love the setting and how you are enveloped by peaceful countryside. The outlook is lovely and the house itself really compliments its surroundings.
