Set within about 2.97 acres on the edge of Bendish, this former village public house has been converted into a versatile country home with genuine equestrian potential. The property combines a substantial main house with a self-contained ground-floor annexe, extensive outbuildings, a paddock, open-sided stable and an orchard — all reached through five-bar gates to a large gravel parking area.
The accommodation feels characterful and spacious, with high ceilings, sash windows, parquet floors and feature fireplaces. The principal bedroom occupies a generous suite with dressing area and large en suite bathroom; two attic rooms provide extra flexible space. The ground-floor annexe has its own sitting room, kitchen, bedroom and bathroom, ideal for extended family, staff or rental use.
Outside, linked workshops (circa 50ft), a barn suitable for garaging and multiple stores support hobby equestrian use or small-scale commercial activity. The paddock and stable provide immediate grazing and turnout, while the formal gardens and orchard add productive and visual appeal.
Practical considerations are important: the house dates from before 1900 with solid brick walls assumed to be uninsulated, and the current EPC rating is E. Heating is served by an air-source heat pump and radiators, although the country kitchen features an oil-fired Aga. The property will suit buyers who value character and space and are prepared to invest in energy improvements and ongoing maintenance.
