Inside

This remarkable home forms part of a historic farmhouse, with origins traceable back to the Domesday Book. While the house as it stands today predominantly dates to the 19th century, it has been thoughtfully reimagined in recent years as part of a distinguished courtyard development comprising just five unique homes. Over the years the property has lovingly restored and upgraded with exquisite attention to detail, seamlessly blending heritage charm with modern comfort.

From the moment you step through into the HALLWAY which is complete with flagstone flooring, decorative panelling, under stairs storage cupboard, and an elegant staircase, the home’s sense of space and grace becomes immediately apparent. Every home should have a UTILITY ROOM, and this one is no exception. This handy space comprises of wall and base units, tiled flooring, has space for multiple white goods, has a door to the front and houses one of two downstairs cloakrooms. The spacious and bright KITCHEN/BREAKFAST ROOM with window and window seat to the rear is the perfect place to cook and enjoy time with friends and family. Along with a superb amount of cupboard and storage space there is space for an electric cooker, built in fridge, built in dishwasher, built in bin, flagstone flooring and an island unit with a Granite work top.

The SITTING ROOM is another wonderful space with a multi-fuel stove at its heart. It boasts wooden panelling, flagstone flooring, window to the rear aspect and a window seat. It is an ideal spot to unwind with a book or share fireside conversations on a crisp autumn evening.
Double doors lead into the elegant DINING ROOM, where a feature fireplace and dual aspect windows create an atmospheric setting for entertaining. This space flows seamlessly into a tranquil STUDY, perfect for remote working or quiet reflection, which in turn leads back to the hallway and a secondary cloakroom. On the lower ground floor, a versatile GAMES ROOM/ GYM provides further flexible living space with direct access to the courtyard via double doors— ideal for entertaining or unwinding in style.

Ascending the stairs, natural light pours in through a stunning full-height window on the half-landing, framing countryside views and illuminating the upper floor. On the LANDING there is a walk-in airing cupboard and loft access hatch which leads to a part boarded space above with ladder.

The PRINCIPAL SUITE is found at the far end of the home. The dual aspect bedroom offers some beautiful countryside views as well as some useful built in wardrobes. If you are still struggling for clothing space, the current owners have fitted out the dressing room with built in, made to measure storage options including a vanity station. The ENSUITE has the best of both worlds with a walk-in double shower and a free-standing bath. ‘His and Hers’ sinks, a chrome heated towel rail, W.C., and a window to the front aspect finish off this room nicely.

Set with a feature fireplace, a built-in wardrobe, window to the rear aspect and personal en-suite, BEDROOM TWO doesn’t disappoint on size. The ensuite provides a corner shower, W.C., vanity wash hand basin, chrome heated towel rail and a window to the rear aspect.

BEDROOM THREE is generous in size and adorned with built-in storage and glorious countryside vistas, while BEDROOM FOUR, located at the front of the house, offers a different yet equally enchanting view over the manicured lawn and rolling landscape beyond.
The FAMILY BATHROOM is both elegant and functional, fitted with a separate bath, shower, floating vanity basin, W.C., light-up mirror, heated towel rail, and a window framing views to the front.
