About this property

  • Corner House Farm started life as a modest chalk longhouse in the late 1700's, but more recently the property has been extended by incorporating an attached Victorian brick barn into the main house, more than doubling the original size. Situated just off the village green, in a peaceful corner of the village, the property enjoys a pleasant setting with beautiful mature gardens on two sides and fabulous rural views from various vantage points.

    The property extends to just over 2800 sqft and comprises of a series of flexible living spaces with numerous eye catching features, including a spacious sitting room, snug and well appointed farmhouse style kitchen/breakfast room which opens into an equally inviting orangery. All three rooms are blessed with plenty of natural light, the sitting room and kitchen both having doors which open into the garden. The remainder of the ground floor provides a flexible arrangement of rooms, currently serving as a family room and sixth bedroom but equally well suited to be an office space, sub letting or an annexe for a dependent relative.

    The first floor is very well suited to growing families, with five double bedrooms and three bathrooms, two en suite. All are neutrally decorated and enjoy contrasting views of the garden and surrounding Wolds countryside.

    The gardens are one of the true highlights of the property, divided into several zones; the area to the south of the property accessed via the orangery and sitting room, a delightful walled area laid with a mixture of stone flags and brick sets, divided by dwarf walls and clipped box hedging which combine to form a fabulous sheltered al fresco dining area with numerous points of interest to draw the eye. This leads around to a lawned garden with flower beds bound by clipped box hedging, dotted with fruit trees, eventually giving way to a more open space currently home to a chicken run and vegetable garden. The entire length of the garden is flanked by a bank with a mixture of mature shrubs and trees, extending to a small paddock with timber store, bordered by open countryside as far as the eye can see.
