A designated area with power is ideal for a large caravan, while a detached brick-built garage adds further versatility.

This outbuilding offers excellent potential to be converted into a self-contained annexe, subject to the necessary consents—perfect for those seeking additional living space or a home business setup. The main residence is truly special. Believed to date back to the 16th century, it exudes period charm with characterful details such as exposed beams and open fireplaces throughout. Upon entering, you're greeted by a warm and welcoming dining hall complete with an impressive inglenook fireplace. This central space provides access to all rooms, ensuring an easy, flowing layout. The kitchen is thoughtfully arranged, with work surfaces, plenty of storage, and room for appliances. A second staircase from here leads to the upper floor, adding to the property's unique character.

For those working remotely, a separate study off a cosy third reception room (perfect as a snug) provides an ideal home office setup. Additional conveniences include a ground-floor WC and a separate utility room. Planning permission is already in place for a kitchen extension, allowing for the integration of the existing space into a more expansive kitchen with panoramic access to the rear garden—offering the potential for stunning indoor-outdoor living. Upstairs, the accommodation continues to impress with three generous double bedrooms. The main bedroom features a high vaulted ceiling and its own en-suite shower room. A recently refitted family bathroom, accessed via a central hall, serves the remaining bedrooms. This home is a rare blend of historic character and contemporary comfort—perfect for those seeking charm, flexibility, and a little space to breathe. Outside Space The outdoor setting is just as remarkable as the interior. In addition to the main gated driveway, a second gated access leads to a large detached timber garage, offering further flexibility. Set within grounds of approximately 0.9 acres, the property includes a formal garden, a separate paddock area, and an expansive lawn dotted with multiple mature and varied trees. A pond with a waterfall feature, resin pathways, and a generous terrace create an idyllic backdrop for entertaining and enjoying the outdoors. The garden is both beautiful and practical, with high hedging and secure fencing on all sides, ensuring complete privacy and a safe environment for children and pets. A large greenhouse and additional shed are tucked away at the far end of the garden for keen gardeners or extra storage both of which also have power running to them.
