Description

Church Farm is a rare opportunity to purchase a "not listed" Georgian country house which is believed to date back to 1816. Being brought to market for the first time in nearly 70 years this is a remarkable opportunity for the next custodians to make their mark. Offering a huge array of accommodation with up to 8 bedrooms over three floors there is ample scope for multi-generational living thanks to both a self-contained apartment within the house and also a detached unconverted barn which could offer further scope for annexe accommodation subject to the relevant planning permissions.

The ground floor comprises of a spacious reception hall, kitchen/breakfast room, drawing room, sitting room, dining room, boot room, scullery, pantry, cloakroom and a series of useful utility rooms and store rooms. The reception rooms all feature fine fireplaces and both the drawing room and sitting room benefit from lovely outward views through the verandah.

The first floor has seven bedrooms and two bathrooms including two of the bedrooms separated into a secondary form of accommodation with their own living room and shower room and thus perfect for either a relative, older children still at home or even for onsite staff living. To the second floor is a further bedroom space and tank room.
Outside
The property is approached via a long driveway leading to ample off road parking. Sitting within a plot of circa 4 acres STMS and featuring fine countryside views the position of the house is delightful. The gardens are mainly laid to lawn with a variety of tree and shrub in situ. A series of useful outdoor workshops, stores as well as a barn give scope for conversion perhaps into extra accommodation subject to the necessary planning or to be made into further garaging and storage space.
