About this Property
Description
This beautifully renovated five-bedroom farmhouse, originally constructed in the late 1700s as two farm labourers' cottages, now seamlessly blends traditional charm with modern living. A comprehensive renovation, partial rebuild, and two-storey extension have transformed the property into a spacious and stylish home. Upon entering, visitors are welcomed by an impressive entrance hall featuring original flooring and a fireplace, complemented by a new two-storey window that floods the space with natural light. The spacious sitting room retains its historic character with original flooring, a fireplace, and elegant bay sash windows. Off the hallway is a flexible room suitable as a home office, playroom, or guest bedroom. The contemporary kitchen diner is both functional and stylish, boasting high-end Neff appliances, a large natural stone island, integrated storage, and a breakfast bar. A separate utility room and WC complete the ground floor amenities. Upstairs, the first floor offers five generous bedrooms. The principal bedroom includes bay sash windows, an ensuite shower room, and a walk-in wardrobe. Two additional characterful bedrooms showcase original features, while two newly built double rooms at the rear offer stunning rural views, with one also featuring an ensuite. The family bathroom impresses with a roll top bath and a vintage butler's sink atop a Victorian washstand. The property includes a large, insulated, and boarded loft with lighting and power. Outside, the garden wraps around two sides of the house and features a raised planting area, a vegetable patch, and a shed. A spacious decking area provides the perfect setting for outdoor dining with scenic countryside views. The front of the home boasts a charming driveway with a flagstone and cobble design, bordered by attractive planters. This thoughtfully restored home offers a rare combination of heritage elegance and contemporary comfort.
