Bedrooms: 5
An attractive Grade II listed stone built farmhouse set in grounds of approximately 3.36 acres of grounds including beautiful woodland.
The property is now in need of modernisation to bring it back to its former glory and is believed to date back to the late 1600's when it was reputed to be a Highwayman's Inn. Although in need of renovation many character features have been retained including inglenook fireplaces with wood burning stoves, shutters to the windows and parquet flooring. The accommodation on offer is arranged over two floors with kitchen/dining room and three generous size reception rooms with characterful fireplaces.
On the first floor there is a light and airy galleried landing and four/five bedrooms. The fifth bedroom is inter-connected to the principle bedroom and would therefore make an ideal dressing room/ensuite or nursery. There are two bathrooms and an additional WC.
Outside
The property has generous grounds of approximately 3.36 acres approached via a gravel driveway leading to a courtyard providing ample parking for several vehicles. There is a detached stone barn which would make an ideal annexe, subject to the relevant consents and approval. The front garden is mainly laid to lawn enclosed by hedging at the front. The rear garden has various different areas with attractive stone walling, an area previously used as a kitchen garden, mature trees and planted beds and access onto your own private woodland.
