Description
Broxham House is a charming Grade II listed period property dating from the 16th century with later additions, believed to have once been a farmhouse and set within exquisite gardens and grounds in a delightful rural location.

The property is generously proportioned, offering accommodation in excess of 4,900 sq ft which is arranged over three floors and displays an abundance of character embellished with some modern comforts. Character features including exposed wall and ceiling timbers, oak framed square pane lead casement windows, oak panelled doors, oak staircase and inglenook fireplaces, are complemented by a sympathetically designed, modern kitchen/breakfast room.

Externally the property prominently displays its 16th century origins with brick and rendered elevations enhancing the exposed timber frame under a tile hung roof. Broxham House is set within idyllic and well maintained gardens which are a particular feature of the property, and in total amounts to about 3.25 acres. Within the grounds are several outbuildings including a self-contained annexe.

The arched oak front door leads to the impressive reception hall with inglenook fireplace inset with a wood burning stove and opening to the rear hall with garden access, a cloakroom and attractive oak staircase rising to the first floor.

Reception rooms comprise a well-proportioned drawing room with a fireplace and enjoying a southerly outlook with doors opening to the garden, a dining room and a sitting room/study with deep square bay window to the southerly aspect incorporating window seats and an inglenook fireplace inset with wood burning stove.

The charming kitchen/breakfast room is fitted with a Smallbone range of wall and base units with a matching central island all in a traditional painted style. There is a four oven electric Everhot range and further integral appliances. Banquette seating provides a lovely breakfasting nook. Double doors lead through to a delightful vaulted garden room providing an excellent space for informal dining and living, with views over and access to the gardens.

The utility room has additional storage, space for appliances and access to a useful boot room/pantry and outside.

The principal bedroom suite is of excellent proportions and has a double aspect with lovely views over the gardens, fitted wardrobes and an en suite bathroom.
