About this property

  • Greyfriars Farm occupies a lovely rural setting and is accessed via a long private shared lane which is flanked by rolling farmland and woodland. This unlisted, six bedroom family property, which is understood to have at one time been farm cottages, offers flexible internal accommodation which could benefit from some updating. Outside, there is a well established garden, fields and excellent equestrian potential, with a substantial barn that had previously incorporated 12 stables, tack and feed rooms and an outdoor school, which would now require re-surfacing.

    The accommodation features two light, southerly facing reception rooms, which include the well proportioned dual aspect sitting room with wood burning stove and French doors to the gardens. Off the reception hall is a further reception room/study and a kitchen/breakfast room fitted with a range of cupboards, an integral dishwasher and space for an oven and fridge. A WC and a utility room with old butler sink and boiler cupboard, completes the ground floor.

    On the first floor there is a total of five bedrooms, served by en suite bathroom to the principal bedroom, a shower room and a family bathroom. All of the bedrooms enjoy lovely views over the surrounding countryside. A spiral staircase leads up from bedroom six to an excellent and extremely versatile attic recreation room.

    Approached via the private lane, shared with four other properties, Greyfriars Farm enjoys far reaching views to the east and west. To the north of the house is the excellent barn, comprising some 6,000 sq ft of storage, which is currently used for woodworking and wine making, but formerly included 11 stables together with tack and feed rooms.

It's rare to see a property in such a quiet and private location, while still being so close to a main line station.
