Marlfield is a substantial modern country estate carefully refurbished to combine contemporary comforts with traditional country character. At around 5,500 sq ft the house provides generous, flexible living — a grand sitting room, an open-plan kitchen/dining hub with an oil-fired Aga, and multiple reception rooms that suit family life and large-scale entertaining.
Set in extensive landscaped grounds the property includes a paddock, vegetable gardens, two greenhouses, a summerhouse and a pond, offering private outdoor living and practical smallholding potential. The integral double garage and ample parking add everyday convenience, while fast broadband supports remote working from this rural setting.
Important practical points: Marlfield sits in a remoter, agricultural area with limited local services and average mobile reception. Council tax is described as quite expensive and the surrounding area is classified as very deprived; the barn behind the house retains a legal right of access and servitude over the private lane. These realities are balanced by exceptional privacy, size and finished standard throughout.
This home will suit buyers seeking a large, well-finished country residence with substantial grounds — families or those wanting a rural retreat with scope for gardening, small-scale paddock uses and entertaining. Its remoteness and running costs should be factored into any viewing decision.
