Handsome period farmhouse with outbuildings and delightful walled gardens with an opportunity to update.
This exceptional unlisted period farmhouse, dating in part back to the 1700s, has been in the same family ownership for around 50 years. Many of the original features have been retained including picture rails, fireplaces, wooden window shutters and exposed beams. It has been a much loved family home and boasts wonderful gracious rooms with high ceilings and offering an opportunity to update if desired.
The generous accommodation extends to over 3300 sq ft and is arranged over three floors, incorporating two staircases. The farmhouse is double fronted and comprises two sizeable reception rooms to the front, with a sitting room, conservatory and farmhouse kitchen with Aga to the rear.
The first floor offers four generous double bedrooms, two of which have dressing rooms, plus two family bathrooms/shower rooms. One of the bedrooms has a mezzanine which could serve as a fun play room or study.
OUTSIDE
The farmhouse sits well in its plot which is about an acre, with plenty of parking to the front and a driveway leading to five garages. The mature gardens wrap around from the front around to the rear, predominantly laid to lawn and boasting a great variety of mature shrubs and trees, with many flowering bulbs in the springtime. There is a patio for outside dining and a most attractive walled garden.
Numerous outbuildings include store rooms, a greenhouse, hen house, duck house, boiler house and an old brewhouse. They are all useful and could be utilised for all manner of uses. In addition, there is a further room over part of the garage area.

I love the gracious feel of this traditional farmhouse, wonderful as it is but it also presents a fabulous opportunity to update.
