Description

Old Chapel Farm is a modest, but attractive period farmhouse which sits within approximately 3.3 acres of gardens and paddocks with a range of outbuildings, double garage, stabling and a tennis court. Peacefully located down a rural lane, the property is bounded by farmland all around with few neighbouring homes. The land is level and ideally suited to equestrian use or for those seeking the 'Good life'.

The farmhouse, which has some character features and a nice feel, offers accommodation extending to around 2,075 sq.ft over two floors to include a large living room, separate dining room (possibly even the 'old chapel' boasting a high vaulted timber ceiling) and conservatory off, and a kitchen with Aga. Plus, a further ground floor reception room/bedroom 4 with nearby bathroom. On the first floor there are three further bedrooms and a bathroom. The house offers scope to extend (not listed) and update.

The gardens are now unkempt and overgrown as are parts of the land but offer great scope to be restored to good use. The tennis court is a relatively modern hard surface court. A range of useful modern outbuildings comprise; double garage, open fronted sheds and stores plus two stables.
