About this property

A charming Grade II listed 5 bedroom village house with a range of excellent outbuildings and gardens and grounds of just over 2 acres.

This charming Grade II listed house has origins in the 16th century with later 18th and 20th century additions. It has evolved into a substantial 5 bedroom family home of great character. A spacious and welcoming part vaulted entrance hall leads to two excellent double aspect reception rooms which occupy the southern side of the house and both overlook and have glazed doors out to a stunning south facing walled garden. Both also feature open inglenook fireplaces, oak ceiling timbers, and exposed wood flooring. On the ground floor, there is also a study, a 5th bedroom suite, the kitchen/breakfast room with an Aga, a separate utility room, and a guest cloakroom/wc.
Up the main stairs the principal bedroom has an ensuite bathroom with a separate shower, and there are 3 further bedrooms, a family bathroom, and a back staircase leading back down to the kitchen. From all the main rooms there are lovely views out over the front and rear gardens.

Outside
The house is approached via a driveway leading from the village green, and through a five-bar gate where the house is secluded beyond its very private walled front garden. There is a parking area for several cars by the front door. Close by, an iron gate leads to a tranquil and secluded koi pond surrounded by a brick paved patio and beech hedge.
The front walled garden is a wonderful sun-trap with a south facing aspect, and a lawn surrounded by well stocked mature herbaceous borders. A paved terrace adjoins the southern tile hung elevation of the house and is accessed from both the main reception rooms. There is also a rear garden, laid to lawn and accessed from the kitchen and ground floor bedroom.
From the parking area, the drive continues to a four-car garage, and then, passing the orchard and vegetable garden, on to a further area of hard standing with a double garage, timber stable, and detached workshop. A gate opens to the meadow with high hedges and mature trees on the boundary and planted with a variety of specimen trees to form an attractive arboretum. In all the gardens and grounds extend to just over 2 acres.
