A handsome Grade II listed five bedroom farmhouse with pool, pool house, about 1.8 acres and lovely countryside views.
Springhill Farm is a handsome Grade II Listed farmhouse, understood to date in part from the 19th century with later 20th century additions, nestling amidst well established gardens of 1.8 acres with a heated outdoor swimming pool, a stylish pool house and separate detached double garage.
The property boasts well proportioned, family accommodation approaching 4,000 sq ft, which is arranged over two floors, together with a wine cellar. Internal features include high ceilings with picture rails, sash windows, painted panelled doors, exposed wooden or brick flooring to some rooms and attractive open fireplaces.
Reception rooms include a drawing room, a sitting/TV room and a lovely light and airy dining/family room which is open to the kitchen. All enjoy a westerly aspect with an outlook over the lawned gardens, and they provide perfect areas for entertaining. Linked to the rear hall via a generous boot/laundry room is a further reception room/home office/study with panelling and an open fireplace.
The kitchen incorporates stylish modern cupboards and a central island with granite work surfaces. Appliances comprise an electric two oven AGA and two fridges. Off the rear hall there is a walk in pantry and a preparation kitchen, with electric oven, dishwasher and fridge. Completing the ground floor is a WC and steps lead down to the single room cellar which provides useful storage facilities.
Situated on the first floor the attractive principal bedroom suite enjoys lovely rural views and benefits from an open fireplace, a dressing room and a luxuriously appointed en suite bathroom with under floor heating. There are four further bedrooms, one with en suite shower facilities and three with wardrobe cupboards, together with a family bathroom and shower room, both finished with modern white sanitary ware.
Springhill Farm is approached via an electric gate which opens to an initial part-shared drive (owned by the property) with a spur continuing off to a sweeping gravel drive leading to the front of the house. Located on the opposite side of the drive to the east is the detached garaging which has both closed and open garages, rafter storage, log stores together with plenty of additional parking.
The attractive enclosed gardens provide a lovely setting and comprise expansive lawns, planted borders, rose beds and an orchard with apple, plum and cherry. A wonderful addition to the property is the heated outdoor swimming pool and stunning pool house, which incorporates two rooms, one with a bar, kitchen facilities with dishwasher, oven and space for fridge/freezer and a shower room. The pool is heated via an air source heat pump, there is also a gas firepit, an electric sauna, a hot tub and an outdoor shower.
