This fabulous DETACHED TRADITIONAL farmhouse property, has been PARTIALLY REFORMED and is habitable with plenty of SCOPE to extend further If required. It is a whopping 474m² set on a partially walled and GATED plot of approximately 735m².
Access is mainly tarmac with some small sections of level track. To the front there is a DOUBLE GARAGE and then a TRADITIONAL wooden door leads to wide steps to the FRONT TERRACE. There are low maintenance gardens surrounding the terrace, and a fly-screened ENCLOSURE for alfresco dining, relaxing and entertaining. Off here is what used to be used as a bar area, and access to several STOREROOMS/OUTBUILDINGS, which could be refurbished to create further self-contained living accommodation, storage rooms or be demolished to provide more outdoor space. A metal door from one of the storage rooms, leads out to a terrace and garden to the rear of the house, so this area could be made much larger and a pool added if required.
The main house is full of CHARACTER with traditional beamed ceilings, wooden windows and ORIGINAL FIREPLACE. A traditional farmhouse door leads to the main entrance hall, and to the left is a SPACIOUS fully fitted kitchen with plenty of units and worktops. To the right, traditional wooden doors lead into a dining room, with a wide archway leading through to a cosy lounge and onto a lovely family bathroom.
Back in the hallway, straight ahead takes you to a welcoming SNUG AREA, with a FEATURE FIREPLACE with LOG BURNER burner and an imposing VAULTED CEILING with stairs leading to the first floor. Off the downstairs snug is a double bedroom with en-suite shower room and a small walk in wardrobe/storeroom.
Traditional stairs lead up to the second floor, where there is a reception room, currently used as a large office and lounge. To the left is a room ready to be renovated, and a further room which could be a useful storage area. To the right, a hallway leads to a shower room, two further bedrooms and an access door to a PRIVATE SUN TERRACE to relax and take in the VIEWS of the countryside to the rear.
Next door to the main house is a separate GUEST ANNEX, which comprises of a lounge dining room, small kitchen, double bedroom and a bathroom. There is a door that has a staircase which leads up to the top floor of the main house so this area can easily be incorporated into the main house or kept separate as required.
The property has mains water and electricity. It is situated in a hamlet with other similar properties, so whilst not isolated, it is a country property enjoying PEACE AND QUIET and fabulous open views. Whilst fully habitable, it has lots of scope to extend further if required. At this price, it is an absolute bargain not to be missed.
