About this property

A beautiful former farmhouse set in excess of 1.7 acres occupying an elevated position within a sought-after village only 12 minutes drive to mainline station* The house offers high ceilings and has been subject to extension and improvement with 5 bedrooms, swimming pool and separate modern annexe.

Originally built in the 16th Century, Burleigh Arches Farmhouse has been thoughtfully extended and improved over the years to create an impressive family home whilst retaining much of its period charm. The property enjoys an abundance of character including original fireplaces and exposed wood beams which are wonderfully complemented by more modern additions such as a bespoke kitchen complete with a range of premium appliances and stylish bath and shower rooms. There is also a self-contained annexe with three bedrooms which has great potential for multigenerational living.

The ground floor comprises a spacious sitting room, study, shower room and fully fitted kitchen/dining room which enjoys an open plan design and serves as the heart of the family home complete with appealing shaker-style units, complementary granite worktops, a range cooker and handy adjacent utility room. Occupying the first floor is the principal bedroom with fitted wardrobes, a second spacious double and a good-sized bedroom, plus a sleek family bathroom with a freestanding tub and walk-in shower. An additional bathroom completes the first-floor accommodation. There are two further bedrooms on the second floor, making an ideal space for older children or visiting guests.
