Quintessential English charm is offered with this period thatched farmhouse, annex, amazing leisure suite and ready to go equestrian facilities. In around 7.5 acres of gardens and paddocks.
The property is accessed at the front via a gravel driveway leading to a double garage, through a pretty front cottage garden. There is also a separate gravel driveway with access to the rear of the property, leading to the stables, paddocks, orchard, additional garage and cart lodge.
A solid wooden front door opens into a porch way with a further door leading into the main entrance hallway with a redbrick open fireplace with inset wood burning stove, wooden flooring, and a turned staircase to the first floor. There are doors leading off to the main reception room which also has a central redbrick fireplace, wood burning stove and exposed beams. A further doorway leads through to the formal dining room with a large Inglenook fire place, exposed beams to walls and ceilings and a secondary staircase.
A further door flows through to an inner hall with an external door to the front of the property and the kitchen/breakfast room is off this, fitted with a good range of wall and base units, range cooker, central island and integrated appliances.
The first floor can be accessed by two separate staircases and offers a main bedroom with en suite bathroom and a further three double bedrooms, with bedroom 2 and 3 having access to the Jack and Jill bathroom.
The beautiful rear gardens are particularly spectacular and have been meticulously cared for to offer a serene space with ornamental pond, feature fountain, decked areas and an array of established trees and plants. The indoor swimming pool complex includes shower and changing facilities, fully equipped gymnasium and a snooker/games room. Located to the rear of the garden area, this opens onto a lovely decked area with ornamental pergola. The hard-standing tennis court lies beyond.
