Historic farmhouse fronting Chorleywood Common. Set within beautifully established grounds extending to about 0.39 of an acre, Clements Farm offers a private and tranquil sanctuary.
Description
Nestled within its own private gardens, Clements Farm is a delightful period farmhouse steeped in history and character. Recognised locally for its architectural and historical significance, a buyer has the opportunity to maintain its unique heritage for the future and believed to be one of the oldest farmsteads within the village Conservation Area, parts of the house are thought to date back to the 16th century. Operating as a mixed farm until the late19th century, it offers a rare opportunity to own a piece of the village's past.
Occupying an enviable position on the edge of the Common, Clements Farm enjoys commanding views and combines period features with original farm outbuildings, showcasing exposed timbers, traditional brickwork, and rural charm.
A path across the Common leads to the gated, partly walled gardens and welcoming entrance. Inside, the spacious hallway sets the tone, complete with a cloakroom. The double-aspect sitting room is full of character, featuring a wood-burning stove and painted part panelled walls, while the pretty dining room enjoys a dual aspect and fitted cupboards. The conservatory, with its tiled floor and garden outlook, provides a peaceful space to relax and enjoy the surrounding greenery. The kitchen is fitted with a range of units and integrated appliances, including a dishwasher, fridge, and gas cooker. Beyond the kitchen, a rear lobby leads to a delightful double-aspect breakfast/utility room with a vaulted ceiling, creating a light-filled and versatile space.
On the first floor, the principal bedroom enjoys a dual aspect and features an attractive ornamental fireplace and has views over the gardens. A second double-aspect bedroom with wonderful views across the Common, while a third bedroom also enjoys a pleasant outlook over the Common too. Completing this floor is a spacious family bathroom fitted with a four-piece suite.
A further staircase rises to the second floor, where a charming double-aspect room (with reduced head height) offers flexible accommodation as a fourth bedroom, teenage retreat, hobby room, or substantial home office.
Outside
Set within beautifully established grounds extending to about 0.39 of an acre, Clements Farm offers a private and tranquil sanctuary. The gardens wrap around the house, creating a series of delightful outdoor spaces with terraces and seating areas positioned to capture the sun throughout the day. Mature hedging, colourful herbaceous borders, and fruit trees - remnants of the property's former orchard - enhance the sense of seclusion and charm.
A terrace provides the perfect outdoor setting while enjoying views across the lawns and garden. To the side of the farmhouse are characterful original barns, currently used for storage and workshop space, displaying impressive beams and attractive period brickwork. The front barn benefits from garage doors, while a driveway provides off-road parking for two vehicles.
Clements Farm is a truly special home, offering an exceptional blend of historic character, architectural interest, and idyllic countryside living in this highly desirable village.
