Description

This impressive family home has been lovingly restored and expanded over the past 7 years, blending original C17 features with modern amenities. The property boasts a sweeping circular driveway and a magical copse named after one of the owners. The interior features a welcoming reception hall with an impressive inglenook fireplace and a study adjacent to the music room. The double aspect conservatory/orangery offers a wonderful space to enjoy the natural outlook into the garden. The kitchen is equipped with a range of wall, floor, and drawer units, as well as a Stanley 'Aga' style double oven range. The property also includes a large utility room, laundry room, and a 2-acre wood, Claire's Copse, which was planted by the owner's wife. The garden is a natural habitat for wildlife, with a variety of bird life and a deer that occasionally wanders through the wood. The owners have completely rebuilt the house and every room is much loved, with the sitting room/dining room and the conservatory being particular favorites.
