Starlings is a striking Grade II listed residence, exuding timeless elegance and rich character. Its origins trace back to the 17th Century, with later additions in the early 20th Century.

Spanning across three floors, the main house offers 3,576 Sq ft of inviting family space, complemented by an additional 1054 Sq ft within its outbuildings, workshop, and garages. Welcoming you into the modern wing, the entrance hallway leads to the grand drawing room with high ceiling and feature fireplace. Adjacent is a conservatory overlooking the gardens. Nestled within the older section, is the cosy sitting room with an inglenook fireplace. There is a modern fitted kitchen/breakfast room with stone worktops and an AGA oven, a dining room, study, convenient cloakroom, utility room, and a spacious walk-in larder.
Ascending to the first floor, the principal bedroom enjoys direct access to a shower room. There are three additional bedrooms and a well-appointed family bathroom on this level, while the fifth bedroom awaits on the second floor.
