Modern farm house with planning to extend, enjoying stunning views with 24 acres of gardens and grazing land.
Lockhill Farm commands an elevated, edge of village position with stunning views. The property is a delightful detached farmhouse of Hornton ironstone, render and timber clad construction. This house offers light bright contemporary accommodation with generous room proportions and high ceilings. The well-conceived layout allows accommodation to flow seamlessly around a central reception hall, lending itself to both family living and entertaining spaces. There is a large kitchen/breakfast room with bespoke DeVol kitchen units, granite work surfaces and electric oven, Smeg two ring electric hob, gas Aga and built in Neff dishwasher. Limestone floors sweep through the kitchen, family/dining room, reception hall and utility room. The family/dining room has high vaulted ceilings with glass doors leading out to the south facing garden terrace benefiting from the uninterrupted views of open countryside. The sitting room with Jotul Woodburning stove acts as the main focal point also benefiting the amazing south facing countryside views. The bedrooms are situated over two floors, the first floor has the principal bedroom with Juliet balcony, dressing room area, free standing bath and en suite shower room and bedrooms two and three with a family bathroom. The second floor consists of two further bedrooms (one is en suite) with one being used as an office.
The house has full planning permission, to increase the square footage for a two story side extension, single story rear extension, addition of new porch and outdoor swimming pool. Reference: 24/00964/FUL.
