A spacious detached house and fantastic home studio / annexe in wonderful rural location with fine far reaching views and about 5 acres.

The Property

Five Acre Farm is a detached brick built house formerly two cottages and believed to have been originally built in 1939 of brick elevations under a pitched tiled roof.

The house now offers contemporary and stylish accommodation along with a link to a wonderful home studio / office which could also be used as a separate annexe. The accommodation is flexible and currently configured with three bedrooms in the main house and one in the annexe but could be returned to four or five bedrooms in the main house as it once was.

The house is entered from the front via a door to the porch leading to the hall with staircase and door to the kitchen / dining room. This is a wonderful family space with the kitchen area having an excellent range of wall mounted and floor standing units, large island with granite worksurfaces and family room beyond with open fire.

The conservatory looks out over the garden and fields and doubles as a superb dining room with newly installed air conditioning. The sitting room is a lovely room with wood burning stove with stone surround and mantle and French doors to the decking. Beyond the kitchen is a utility room and larder, door to outside and link to the studio / annexe. The master bedroom has lovely far-reaching views, air conditioning, dressing rooms and ensuite shower room. The two other bedrooms are both doubles with a family bathroom.

From the link French doors lead out to a south facing terrace. The studio is great working space from which our clients run their business. It is fully insulated, has power and water and has tremendous scope to be used as a separate annexe should this be required.

There is a ground floor shower room and on the first floor a double bedroom, living area and kitchenette.

Outside

The property is approached via wooden five bar electric security gates with CCTV on to a private gravel drive where there is ample parking and turning for several cars and a large timber workshop (30'2 x 16'9).

The gardens are a real feature of the property and lie predominantly to the side and rear of the house facing south and west and are extremely well maintained and laid to lawn with several flower and shrub beds and borders having a tremendous variety of plants and shrubs, fruit trees and a productive vegetable plot. There are many areas of interest and some mature trees. A large south-facing terrace occupies a lovely sheltered spot and is ideal for al-fresco dining and entertaining with pergola and jacuzzi. A further seating area in the garden has a firepit and is a perfect place to enjoy the spectacular sunsets.

There is a stable block with a small concrete holding area, two stables and a hay / feed store. In addition there is a 29' hay / machinery store and a substantial 30' workshop with double wooden garage doors, power and light. All outbuildings have recently been re-roofed.

Beyond the garden and grounds of 1 acre, there is a 3.2 acre paddock, and a 0.8 acre paddock, the whole measuring about 5 acres.
