About this property

  • Holmhurst Cottage is a picturesque Grade II listed country home understood to date from 1550 with a later kitchen / reception extension, a fabulous space filled with natural light and a space that lends itself to modern family living.
    The current owners have been in residence for the past decade and the accommodation extends to over 3,800 sq ft with a wealth of retained period features complimented by tasteful interiors very much in keeping with the age and style of the property.

    From the porch is a welcoming entrance hall leading to a collection of three reception rooms enjoying original beams, central brick fireplaces with log burning stoves. The Thomas Ford kitchen / breakfast room has been beautifully designed with high quality cabinetry, central island, breakfast bar and AGA. There is an impressive vaulted ceiling reception area with oak beams and lovely views as well access to the garden. A further door leads to a utility / boot room, separate cloakroom and stairs up to the galleried and versatile study / playroom or bedroom.

    On the first floor is a principal bedroom with fitted wardrobes, an en suite shower room and a pleasant triple aspect over the garden and fields beyond. There are three further bedrooms, a shower room and a large family bathroom.

    Holmhurst Cottage enjoys pretty views across neighbouring farmland and the countryside beyond. The landscaped gardens have been well tended over the years, measuring approximately 0.4 acre with well stocked flowering beds, mature trees and vegetable area. Garden outbuildings include a greenhouse, shed and summerhouse. There is a lovely outdoor seating area to enjoy this spectacular setting.

    On the driveway is ample parking space and the property benefits from an attached double garage with a WC.

I love the character of this house, the delightful village location as well as the views over the surrounding fields. The recent addition of the kitchen/ breakfast room is truly wonderful.
