Set within just over an acre of private grounds, this substantial five-bedroom stone farmhouse combines original character with meaningful modern upgrades. Exposed beams, stonework and a large inglenook fireplace with original bread oven create atmospheric reception spaces, while the bespoke L-shaped kitchen and separate utility room give practical family functionality. The property includes a detached conservatory and multiple outdoor seating areas that capture sweeping countryside views.
The ground floor offers three principal reception rooms and a light-filled formal dining room, with internal access to the integral garage and a guest WC for everyday convenience. Upstairs the principal suite benefits from a contemporary en-suite; two further bedrooms sit on the first floor and two additional bedrooms plus storage occupy the top floor, providing flexible accommodation for family living or home-working.
Recent works include an air source heat pump and upgraded insulation, delivering a strong Energy Performance Certificate rating of B for energy efficiency—an uncommon advantage in a home of this age. Practical aspects include a gated, gravelled driveway with ample parking and an integral garage for additional storage or workshop space.
Notable considerations: the property is served by oil-fired boiler and radiators alongside the heat pump, and broadband speeds are reported as very slow, which may affect remote working without alternative connectivity solutions. Council tax sits in band E. The house dates from before 1900 and retains traditional stone construction, so prospective buyers should allow for ongoing maintenance typical of older rural properties.
