A picturesque period home in a pretty location with swimming pool and wonderful garden.
Dating back to the 16th century and with later extensions, Little Fishfolds is a traditional English country home located on the outskirts of the popular village of Forest Green. The house boasts a wealth of character features including leaded windows, beamed walls and ceilings, oak joinery throughout and fireplaces. The property is offered in excellent condition, including CAT5 internet wiring throughout, a multi-room music system extending to the pool hut and wifi remote operated central heating, pool heating and security cameras.
The main original oak front door leads through a vestibule to the reception hall, which has a beamed ceiling and walls and herringbone oak flooring. This attractive, restful, sitting area has an impressive large inglenook fireplace with a beehive shaped brick canopy and display lighting. From here, double doors lead through to the elegant drawing room, with beamed, wall-lit display area, stone fireplace, with paved hearth and side alcoves, and a floor to ceiling windowed bay, including doors leading out to the terrace. The beamed study is opposite the drawing room to the left of the reception hall. The inner hall leads down a short corridor to the fine dining room. With its wood block flooring, stone fireplace and display alcove, this room along with the drawing room, is truly made for entertaining. The kitchen/breakfast room is found just past the galleried staircase. This hand painted, bespoke dual purpose room was designed by Aspects of Cranleigh featuring an AGA Range cooker with six hobs, two dresser style units, island unit with second sink, wine rack and vegetable baskets, sealed oak work surfaces and limestone flooring. There is a gas stove in the breakfast area from which double doors lead out to the wide terrace to the rear of the house. A door leads through to the second downstairs cloakroom, shower, comprehensive utility room and boot room which has a door to the terrace and pool.
