A beautiful Grade II Listed period property boasting a wealth of character, together with large private gardens, arboretum and paddock. In all about 3.41 acres.
This charming period property is believed to date back 1611 and is of Blackdown flint elevations under a pitched tiled roof which was probably thatched originally. The accommodation boasts all the character features you would expect from the period with pretty dormer windows, flagstone flooring, exposed timber beams and impressive inglenook fireplaces to name but a few. The downstairs comprises an entrance porch which leads to a cross passage hallway with flagstone flooring and exposed timber beams. To the side is a kitchen/breakfast room with a range of fitted units, Rayburn and walk-in pantry. The dining room has a beautiful plank and muntin screen, along with an inglenook fireplace with log burning stove with heavy beam over and bread oven. Immediately adjoining is the living room which enjoys a dual aspect, open fireplace and hardwood flooring. Upstairs are five bedrooms, four of which are double with the master en-suite with dressing room and separate family bathroom. The property, although well maintained, is now somewhat dated and now benefits from some modernisation internally.
The property is approached over a hardened driveway which leads to a car parking and turning area which also gives access to a stone built garage. The gardens immediately to the right are predominantly lawned with well established borders and a magnificent wisteria covers the front of the house with ornamental box hedging. A stream forms the western boundary, teaming with aquatic wildlife, flora an fauna and beyond is a mature arboretum containing a number of mature specimen trees. A hedge divides a small paddock which has separate road access is planted to a number of fruit trees and has clusters of woodland with regular sightings of deer, foxes and other native wildlife. In total the property extends to approximately 3.41 acres and to fully appreciate the position and charm a viewing is highly recommended.
