| | Toby Hawkins, Independent Agent, says: | Built in 1813 there are 5 bedrooms, 2 sitting rooms, dining room and study. Garages, barns and outbuildings make this a wonderful large house with lots of potential. The garden and land are just behind the house, giving privacy and space.
| Through the ornate front door, you come into the hall which leads to the sitting room, study, second sitting room, staircase and loo.
The sitting room is large, bright and sunny, with a window to the front and glazed French doors to the back garden. It has an impressive stone fireplace and a stunning floor of polished Bourgogne stone, which is also in the dining room and kitchen. The dining room has a door to the garden and to the kitchen which has fitted units and great views over the garden through a window and a glazed door.
At the other end of the house, the study overlooks the meadow and has a parquet floor and French doors. An inspiring setting to work in. The second sitting room is currently used as a television room, but would be a super music room, downstairs bedroom or children’s playroom.
At the top of the beautiful oak staircase, there is a landing leading to the five double bedrooms, a bathroom and a wash room. It is full of character and original charm.
On the next floor there is a large open attic with the tank and controls for the solar heated water.
There are 2 garages, with enormous attics above. Plenty of room to make a gîte here, or a fully kitted out workshop. Other outbuildings include the boiler room, stable, wood store, chicken houses and outside privy, still with its wooden seat.
The garden has shade from the mature trees including Catalpa, weeping willows and pine. The meadow slopes gently down from the garden to the woods beyond, where there are mostly oaks.
This is a lovely house with no work needed. It is ideal for a family with horses or perhaps the perfect spot to run a bed and breakfast and only a short stroll to the heart of the village. It is connected to mains drains, mains water and electricity, has broadband internet, solar heated hot water and a well.
