About this home
Believed to date from the 1500's and Grade II Listed, this remarkable six-bedroom detached residence presents a rare opportunity to acquire a home of significant historical importance. Combining centuries of character with over 3,000 sq ft of versatile accommodation, the property enjoys generous private grounds and a wealth of original features that reflect its rich heritage.
Approached via a substantial private driveway with no shared access, the property enjoys an immediate sense of privacy and arrival. While the current owners favour the rear entrance for everyday use, the magnificent church-like timber front doors provide a striking reminder of the home's historic origins and architectural significance.
Arranged across multiple levels, the accommodation retains an abundance of period charm throughout. A long entrance hallway leads to the principal living spaces, while at the heart of the home is a welcoming farmhouse-style kitchen/breakfast room complete with an Aga, creating a warm and sociable hub for family life, informal dining and entertaining.
The ground floor offers an excellent range of reception accommodation, centred around a grand sitting room with an impressive feature fireplace. Two further interconnecting reception rooms provide exceptional flexibility for modern living, whether used for entertaining, relaxing, home working or hobbies. A separate dining room offers an elegant setting for family meals and special occasions, while the music room presents additional space for creativity or leisure. Further practical accommodation includes a utility/laundry room, shower room, cloakroom and useful storage areas.
The first floor is accessed via two separate staircases, enhancing both the flexibility and character of the home. Here, there are three generous double bedrooms, a further single bedroom and a family bathroom, all connected by spacious landing areas that reinforce the property's sense of scale.
On the upper floor, a substantial bedroom is complemented by an adjoining room currently arranged as a separate space. Subject to any necessary consents, this could potentially be incorporated to create an additional bedroom suite, offering further flexibility for growing families, guests.
Outside, the property enjoys extensive private gardens, providing a wonderful setting for outdoor entertaining, family activities or simply enjoying the tranquillity of the surroundings. Rarely found with homes of this age and character, the grounds create an enviable balance between space, privacy and lifestyle.
A particularly valuable addition is the detached outbuilding, currently utilised as a studio and benefiting from heating, electricity and WC facilities. Offering excellent potential as a creative workspace, home office, workshop or accommodation for extended family, the building provides versatility to suit a variety of needs while remaining separate from the main residence.
Rich in history, character and flexibility, this unique Grade II Listed home offers an increasingly rare combination of period grandeur, generous living space, extensive grounds and future potential.
