About this property

  • The Old Firehouse is an attractive, Grade II listed house dating from late C17th, situated along the popular Marshfield High Street. Built with an attractive stone façade and featuring original stone mullion windows under a Cotswold stone tiled roof, the main house offers versatile accommodation arranged over three floors, along with an unconverted cellar.

    The entrance hall leads directly through the centre of the house, with lovely views to the rear garden upon entering. To the left hand side is a charming dining room with stone mullion windows, flagstone floor, an open fireplace with gas stove and an open staircase to the first floor. Leading from the dining room is the kitchen with a range of fitted units, integrated appliances, flagstone floors and space for a breakfast table, as well as access out to the rear garden.

    On the opposite side of the house is a large sitting room comprising two rooms opened front to back in to one large entertaining space. The front room is centred around a wonderful stone fireplace with ornate surround, and the rear sitting room has views of the garden and access to a pretty garden room/study. There is also a separate WC on this floor accessed from the hallway, adjacent to the cellar door.

    The bedroom accommodation is well arranged over the first and second floors. The first floor landing is a generous size and is currently utilised as a study. On this floor are two large bedrooms both with fitted cupboards, one with en suite shower room, as well as a large family bathroom. To the second floor are two further bedrooms and another bathroom.

    OUTSIDE
    The pretty rear garden is south facing and largely laid to lawn with mature borders and an area of patio immediately accessible from the house. A stone-built garden shed is located in the corner of the plot.
