      The well proportioned accommodation is arranged over two floors and amounts to over 3,500 sq ft. Four reception rooms comprise; a generously proportioned sitting room with log burner, dining room with sliding doors out to the terrace, a breakfast room and an oak framed garden room enjoying views over the open countryside. The handmade double aspect kitchen is fitted with a range of cupboards complimented by granite worksurfaces, appliances include a Zanuzzi oven, oil fired Aga and a wine cooler. A door leads through to the utility room with further cupboard space, a Samsung American fridge/freezer and interconnects with the snug. Off the entrance hall is the versatile ground floor bedroom, off which is a south west facing conservatory, served by a contemporary wet room – ideal for multigenerational living.

      A staircase leads up to the galleried landing off which are four bedrooms, all of which enjoy views of the garden or beyond. The principal bedroom enjoys a double aspect with views over the countryside to The Ridge via an arched window, bedroom two also has an arched window and an en suite shower room. Two further bedrooms are served by a family bathroom.

      Eighteen Pounder Farm is approached via three driveways, two to the south of the property and one to the north leading to a further area of parking, detached double garage with home office above and a log cabin. Attractive gardens wrap around the property with the west facing garden having the swimming pool, summerhouse, greenhouse and small orchard whilst to the east, the garden is laid mainly to lawn and is more of a formal garden with herbaceous borders and hedging.
