Introduction
Believed to date from the late 16th century Hallams is a lovely four-bedroom family home set within a generous plot of over one acre, close to the heart of the popular village of Burbage. Retaining many original features inside and out, the generously-proportioned accommodation has a remarkably light and airy quality unusual in period properties. Sympathetically maintained by the current owners Hallams offers the perfect combination of modern comfort and period charm. Note: This property is exchange ready.
The property

Hallams is a Grade-ii-listed detached property of timber frame construction with brick in-fill and thatched roof above. It still retains much of its original appearance, with exposed beams and roof timbers, but it has been sympathetically modernised with, for example, secondary glazing throughout. The accommodation comprises:

On the Ground Floor -
The main entrance to the house is at the rear, and leads into an impressive central hall with splendid exposed roof timbers and a fine oak floor of modern construction. Immediately to the left is the Drawing room, a welcoming space which features a limestone fireplace containing a log burning stove, and which offers pleasant views out to the garden. The farmhouse-style Kitchen is fitted with high-quality oak units with timber worktops, including a central island with breakfast bar, and features a range cooker with gas hob (supplied by external lpg cylinders) as well as a selection of built-in appliances including dishwasher and fridge-freezer. There is also a large and useful pantry. A stable door leads out to the garden.

Adjacent to the kitchen is the generously-proportioned dining room, while across the hall is the cosy sitting room, also with inglenook fireplace and log-burning stove. A downstairs cloakroom completes the ground floor accommodation.

On the First Floor -
The stairs lead up from the entrance hall to a light and spacious corridor that gives access to each of the upstairs rooms. At the top of the stairs on the right is Bedroom 1, the largest bedroom, which benefits from a range of cottage-style fitted wardrobes running the length of one wall which extend under the eaves and offer a huge amount of storage space. Next door is the charming Bedroom 4, smallest of the four, with lovely views over the garden. Further along the corridor is the very spacious and elegant family bathroom, with four-piece bathroom suite and an attractive bamboo floor. Then at the end of the corridor are Bedrooms 2 and 3, each of which benefits from en suite shower room.
Outside

The property enjoys a secluded position close to the centre of the village, within a generous plot of over one acre. Approached via a short driveway directly off the High Street, a five-bar gate then opens into a large gravelled parking area to the rear of the house, with ample space in which to park at least four or five vehicles. There is also a double garage providing additional parking or storage space, and behind this a useful timber shed and log store.

Immediately adjacent to the house is a pleasant paved terrace, ideal for outdoor entertaining, and which offers a perfect place to relax while looking out over the extensive gardens to the west of the property. The well-maintained lawns are interspersed with a variety of well-stocked flower beds, shrubs, and several magnificent mature trees including Sycamore, Oak, Birch and Ash. A Beech hedge encloses the more formal garden and set within it is a picket gate leading through to the orchard, which contains a selection of apple, pear, plum and mulberry trees, as well as a splendid hazel hedge (very popular with the local squirrel population). This lovely space is bounded on three sides by fields in which sheep are grazed, and a screen of large ash trees.

On the other side of the house, facing east, lies a further sizable area of lawn together with a kitchen garden with raised beds, fruit cages, a greenhouse and garden shed.

There is also a substantial, high-ceilinged, brick-built workshop, with light, power and mains water supply, currently used as a utility room and laundry but with the potential to become a very well-appointed home office or studio.
