Old Mead is a handsome 17th Century, timber framed house of plastered elevations under a tiled roof with Georgian brick additions to the rear and is now Listed Grade II as being of architectural and historical importance.

The spacious, well-portioned and flexible accommodation is arranged over two storeys offering substantial light rooms, ideal for both entertaining and family living. Much character is retained throughout the house with exposed timbers and beams; numerous fireplaces of various periods; many sash windows on the ground floor and principally leaded lights on the first floor. All the principal rooms enjoy views over the surrounding mature grounds.

Old Mead is well set, almost centrally, within over 4 acres of mature gardens and grounds. The grounds flow around the house with a variety of different areas sub-divided by mature hedging, including laurel and yew amongst others, and a delightful brick wall with a moon gate. Incorporated within the grounds are various lawns, a sunken garden and an ornamental pond, all interspersed with numerous mature specimen trees including weeping willow, beech and yew.

Within the grounds are two substantial traditional outbuildings providing a number of large storerooms and one having a hayloft above. Also within the gardens is also an outdoor swimming pool. The abundance of mature trees and traditional screening provide an excellent feeling of privacy and seclusion for such a convenient location.
