Charming farmhouse with detached three bed barn including pool and tennis court.
Banwell Farmhouse is a delightful period home believed to date from the 17th century. The ground floor of the main house comprises a charming sitting room with inglenook fireplace and a beamed ceiling. A family kitchen has solid wood cabinets, wooden worktops and butler sink, with a dining room and utility room adjoining. All the principal reception rooms face south. A useful study area can also be found on the ground floor. To the first floor are four bedrooms, one with en suite bathroom, and a family bathroom.
A real feature of the property is the secondary accommodation, which is made up of a converted Sussex barn which has been delightfully presented as a holiday / guest cottage with three main bedrooms and flexible accommodation. Downstairs is a very generous open plan living / kitchen / dining space, ideal for entertaining.
The gardens have been well looked after and contain expanses of lawn, a small orchard, mature trees and shrubs and a tennis court. A heated swimming pool is tucked away in a secluded position next to west facing terrace adjacent to the barn. Additional outbuildings include a brick built tool shed, pool bar and double garage. There is extensive parking to the front of the property.
