One of my favourite houses, I have been waiting for 3 years for this to come on the market! This is a great example of a grand, old, edge-of-village character luxury house. Steeped in family history it was once the manorhouse to the local farm and probably the most important house in the village.
Truly a great family house, this is an example of a ready-to-move-in property whose features have been left pretty much intact for the last 60 years, just as we like it. Nestling on the edge of the village the large L-shaped property, built in 1890, is accessed from a short driveway which also gives access to the old farmhouse (once part of the same family). As you approach, the property starts with the annexe - perfect for extended family/ grandparents. Currently used for storage it comprises two large character rooms of 25m2 and 20m2 plus the convertible loft above. To the left of the annexe is an original condition 18m2 outhouse with ancient stone laundry facilities and a perfect breadoven. Next to this is an 48m2 open barn for parking, and a large 100m2 closed barn with plenty of room for cars, hobbies, conversion, etc. The manor house faces you with its impressive Virginia creeper covered facade and character windows and doors. Entering through the ornate front door you find yourself in the 15m2 hall, going back in time, - ancient beams, terra cotta tiled floor, a feeling of grandeur and grace. Stairs go to the first floor, and doors lead into the large 18m2 winecellar and to the parlour. The 18m2 parlour/drawing room has ornate tiled flooring and a stone fireplace, plus its own door to the front. A door to the right leads into my favourite room - a central dining room - fitted full height original dresser units with pullout serving table, tiles, wainscotting, exposed beams, fireplace - marvellous! You can see yourself dining here. Off here is the 25m2 kitchen, which functions perfectly well but which you will probably want to update. There is a door to the rear terrasse and gardens and a door down to the cellars - a storeroom and the central heating oil store. Also giving onto the terrasse is the tranquil and bright 30m2 sitting room with its chateau style parquet flooring and marble fireplace. Perfect for keeping cool on summer nights or for those who can't climb stairs there are 4 downstairs bedrooms - 20m2 , 25m2 with a vanity unit, 12m2 , a 10m2 spare room and a 12m2 bathrrom. There is also a 14m2 laundry/ironing room and a storeroom. Up the stairs from the entrance hall the long landing gives access to 4 further bedrooms of 18m2, 16m2, 12m2, 6m2, most with fireplaces, plus a huge 16m2 family bathroom recently modernised, and a separate WC. In case this isnt enough, or you fancy a games room or a massive master suite, the 80m2 loft will be simple to convert and is directly off the landing in a continuation of this floor. The gardens of the house are divided by function. The walled kitchen garden is a terrasse leading down to a lawn and the original fowl/rabbit enclosures. This garden communicates with the formal garden through an exquisite archway/arbor which also gives access to the romantic Cedar walk. The formal garden is beautiful with mature trees and an ornate pigeonnier surrounding a large, hedged and walled lawn, floodlit at night so it can be enjoyed whatever the hour. The centre of the far garden hedge is open to provide a view over the rest of the land - a large field surrounding the property on 2 sides and giving lovely views around. Lovely large house, huge land, yet all at the edge of a pretty village, and with just a couple of minutes walk to a really good restaurant! Truly a superb property in my book, please call me or email me for a visit.
