Description
This period property is a pretty Cotswold stone and brick built traditional farmhouse, dating back to the 16th Century with a plethora of superbly preserved character and sizeable accommodation. Boasting generous room proportions throughout, the principal accommodation extends to around 3,221 sq.ft with the addition of a cellar and attic floor. The charming period features have been sympathetically retained throughout the farmhouse including exposed beams, casement windows, flagstone and parquet flooring, panelling, window seats and traditional fireplaces.
The main accommodation comprises a farmhouse style kitchen with a Sandford Range, a sitting room, a dining hall and an elegant drawing room. On the first floor there are five bedrooms, four of which are double, a family bathroom and an office accessed by a separate staircase. The attic floor offers scope for converting into further bedroom accommodation.
Set within a 0.53 acre plot, the farmhouse is accompanied by an excellent range of outbuildings including a garage, workshop/store and a former granary. The granary is a wonderful two-storey building and individually Grade II listed displaying a wealth of character in its own right with a date stone in the gable reading 1765.
Arranged to the west with delightful elevated countryside views, the gardens are of a good size with the lawned area interspersed with well-established trees leading to a further area within the former orchard garden. There is vehicular access to the side of the farmhouse leading to the gravel forecourt beside the outbuildings. There is a former nissen hut and additional vehicular access via the orchard garden.
The farmyard and buildings located to the rear of the farmhouse are considered to have some longer-term development potential and are highlighted in blue on the accompanying plan. There is separate vehicular access into the yard and the extensive range of buildings include workshops, open stores and former stables.
Located a short distance from the farmhouse, there is approximately 4.69 acres of pastureland which could be available by separate negotiation.
