Description
Once a former barn and milking parlour, this stunning property is adorned with vaulted ceilings, traditional doors and inviting fireplaces.
With six spacious double bedrooms, residents enjoy ample personal space. The property further impresses with comprehensive bathroom amenities, including a luxurious en-suite, wet room and two additional shower rooms.
The milking parlour is self-contained with it’s own entrance, kitchen, bathroom and two bedrooms, thus flexible for use as a separate annexe.
At the heart of this property is a walled garden, complete with flower beds, topiary and a raised sun terrace, perfect for alfresco dining.
The former stables have been converted into a two-storey office space. Although technically designated for stabling, the building has been used as an office for many years.
Car enthusiasts will appreciate the quadruple garaging and driveway parking, ensuring ample space for multiple vehicles. There is also an electric car charging point, convenient for those with newer vehicles.
Spanning an impressive 8.3 acres, an expansive field caters to equestrian enthusiasts, providing optimal terrain for riding activities and quality grazing space for horses to roam and thrive in a natural environment.
This luxurious family home, exuding charm and character, boasts an expansive layout of quality living spaces and seamlessly marries historical charm with contemporary luxury. Featuring six double bedrooms and comprehensive bathroom amenities, including a wet room, en-suite and two additional shower rooms, along with cloakrooms, it truly captivates.
The living areas are equally impressive, comprising three spacious sitting rooms, a study, formal dining room and a kitchen breakfast room, complemented by a utility room. Vaulted ceilings, exposed beams and timbers, traditional larch and latch doors, oak window frames, wagon arch windows and inviting fireplaces further elevate charm and warmth.
Outside, the property is surrounded by sweeping lawns framed
by mature trees and a stunning walled garden. Equestrian enthusiasts will appreciate the expansive field, perfect for quality grazing and riding activities. Additionally, car enthusiasts will find solace in the quadruple garaging and ample driveway parking, rounding out the impressive offerings of this distinguished residence.
