Pear Tree Farm is an exceptional five-bedroom detached home set within 4.72 acres, arranged for flexible, multi-generational living. The house delivers more than 5,100 sq ft of renovated living space plus some 2,330 sq ft of outbuildings, including two double garages, workshops and a detached furnished office — ideal for a home business, hobbyist or equestrian use.
The heart of the house is a bright, open-plan kitchen, dining and family area with full-height glazing and sliding doors that connect seamlessly to extensive terraces, an outdoor kitchen and lawned paddocks. The principal suite enjoys vaulted ceilings, a dressing room, study and far-reaching views over the property. Multiple reception rooms, a games/cinema room, gym and separate games building give generous entertaining and private living options for extended families.
Practical strengths include recent renovations, double glazing, LPG-fired boiler with radiators and substantial parking and garaging. Notable practical drawbacks are the very slow broadband speeds on site, reliance on LPG (not mains gas), a current EPC rating of D and a relatively high council tax band — all factors to consider for household running costs. The size and outbuildings provide clear potential for home enterprise, annexe conversion or equestrian facilities, subject to planning and consent where required.
Set close to village amenities, reputable schools and with easy road links, this rural yet accessible property suits families seeking privacy, scope and high-quality entertaining spaces alongside the potential for income or hobby uses. Viewing is recommended to appreciate the scale, layout and countryside aspect in person.
