About this property

  • Tudor House is an impressive family home exuding period charm, which sits in a peaceful hamlet surrounded by countryside and equestrian opportunities yet remains well connected to the surrounding villages and amenities. Built in the 17th century, the home is full of character with beautifully maintained exposed wood beams and offers ample reception space for formal and informal occasions and modern life. Internally the house is neutrally decorated to a high standard, for ease of personalization by the new owner and extends to over 2200 sq ft across two floors.

    A welcoming entrance hallway opens to a formal dining room, sitting room with inglenook fireplace, kitchen with AGA, bespoke cabinetry and adjoining utility room. There is also a separate cloakroom/WC. On the first floor there are three double bedrooms, each with en suite facilities; the principal bedroom has a separate dressing room. There is a ladder to the loft which offers further usable space. There are multiple outbuildings including a delightful thatched storage room, which used to be a dairy, summer house, and double car port and attached studio space with shower.

    The house is set on a spacious plot of about 5.36 acres, behind gates with a large gravel driveway to the front providing ample off-street parking and access to the detached double car port. The meticulously cared for wraparound garden is sizeable and attractive with separate areas including a paved decorative garden, lawns and features a well with thatched cover. The lawns extend to the north east of the property and lead to the stable block with two stables, tack room and storage. The paddock is easily accessed via five bar gate for accessible equestrian exercise and dog walks.
