A stylish family home blending timeless character and modern living.
Description
This charming home is a striking double-fronted Grade II listed former farmhouse, believed to date back to the 16th century and thoughtfully enhanced with sympathetic later additions.
Nestled within spacious, private, and impeccably maintained gardens, this substantial family residence perfectly combines historic character with modern convenience. Original features like exposed beams, distinctive brickwork, and impressive fireplaces blend seamlessly with contemporary updates, including a stylish kitchen and renovated bathrooms. Spanning three floors, the property offers approximately 4,852 sq ft of versatile living space.
The beautifully landscaped gardens are a standout feature of this exceptional property. The secluded rear garden, enclosed by an elegant red brick wall, creates a peaceful setting filled with a variety of mature plants and shrubs that add seasonal colour and interest.
Designed for both relaxation and entertaining, the outdoor area includes a heated swimming pool, tennis court, summerhouse, and several carefully positioned seating areas. Whether hosting lively gatherings, enjoying family downtime, or unwinding with a quiet drink, this garden space caters to every lifestyle.
To the front, a sweeping gravel driveway provides ample private parking and a warm, inviting arrival to the home.
