Description

This charming family home, known as Riddiford House, is a unique blend of its original 17th-century roots and modern updates. The property has undergone extensive renovations over the past 7 years, including rewiring, new central heating, double glazing, and the installation of solar and photovoltaic panels. The result is a warm and welcoming home with plenty of natural light and stunning views of the surrounding gardens. The property's highlight is its park-like grounds, featuring a magical copse named Claire's Copse, which was planted by the current owners and is home to a variety of wildlife. The interior features a range of comfortable living spaces, including a sitting room with a large inglenook fireplace, a study, music room, and a spacious kitchen with a range of appliances. The property also boasts a range of outdoor spaces, including a courtyard, a wrap-around conservatory, and a large garden with a greenhouse, vegetable beds, and a BBQ area. The current owners have lovingly restored the property and have created a truly unique and special home that is perfect for families or those looking for a peaceful retreat.
