A charming Grade II listed home set within approximately 3.2 acres of grounds including equestrian facilities and woodland.

Description
A rarely available Grade II listed 17th century residence, beautifully combining original character features with stylish contemporary additions, set within approximately 3.2 acres of gardens, paddock and woodland. Offering exceptional privacy and seclusion, this delightful country home also benefits from excellent equestrian facilities including a stable block, separate menage and additional gated access to the land.

The property is approached via electric wooden gates opening onto a generous gravel driveway providing parking for several vehicles, alongside a two-bay open garage. Constructed in attractive herringbone red brick, the house is rich in period charm, with thumb latch doors, exposed beams, oak flooring throughout the ground floor and multiple fireplaces with log burning stoves.

The accommodation is both versatile and beautifully presented.

The welcoming kitchen/breakfast room features granite work surfaces, an induction hob, built-in Miele ovens, integrated fridge/freezer and dishwasher, together with space for a breakfast table and chairs. A full-height window provides lovely views across the wisteria-clad courtyard terrace and covered seating area.

There are three elegant reception rooms comprising a dual aspect sitting room with French doors leading onto the garden and access via the original front door, a beamed dining room with fireplace and contemporary log burner, and an adjoining bar area ideal for entertaining. In addition, a versatile dual aspect study/family room/playroom also enjoys French doors opening to the garden.

Additional ground floor accommodation includes a cloakroom, utility room with external access, and a well-appointed wet room, ideally suited for returning from country walks, equestrian pursuits or muddy boots after a day outdoors.

Upstairs, a galleried landing leads to three beautifully characterful bedrooms, two of which are dual aspect with original exposed beams. The principal family bathroom enjoys delightful open views over the gardens and surrounding grounds, while additional eaves storage enhances practicality.

Outside, the grounds are a particular feature of the property. The well-established gardens are predominantly laid to lawn with mature trees, hedging and cottage-style borders creating a wonderfully private setting. A greenhouse, pond, original well and a delightful hexagonal summer house complete with wood-burning stove add further charm.

For equestrian enthusiasts, the property offers a stable block with five stables and two storage bays, together with a separate fenced menage and paddock access. A brick-built tack room offers potential for conversion into a home office or gym, subject to any necessary consents.
