The Old Dairy Farm (Main Residence)
The main house exudes timeless charm and quality, with accommodation centred around an outstanding entrance hall featuring full-width dual aspect windows and a striking return staircase. The heart of the home is a traditional farmhouse-style kitchen, complete with central island, range cooker, ample dining space, and adjoining utility room.

The ground floor offers generous and versatile living areas, including a welcoming lounge, a formal dining room, and an impressive 29-foot sunroom overlooking the beautiful gardens. A further reception room, currently used as a large office/sitting room adjoins a convenient downstairs W.C.

To the first floor, a galleried landing with full-height vaulted ceilings leads to five double bedrooms. Four of the bedrooms benefit from en suite facilities, including the luxurious principal suite which features a walk-in wardrobe and elegant en suite shower room. The tasteful décor throughout reflects the property's character and rural surroundings while offering modern comforts.

The Annexe
Constructed to complement the style of the main house, the self-contained annexe offers spacious and well-planned accommodation over two floors. On the ground floor, a generous lounge with feature fireplace opens onto a bright conservatory – an ideal space for relaxing or entertaining guests. A large dining kitchen with utility room, separate sitting room, and guest W.C. complete the ground floor accommodation.

Upstairs, there are two well-proportioned bedrooms served by a bathroom. This charming annexe offers flexibility for extended family living, visiting guests, or even potential holiday let use, all whilst retaining privacy from the main residence.

Outside Space
The property stands within stunning grounds of approximately 1.27 acres, with sweeping lawned gardens stretching around both the main house and annexe. A secure gated entrance opens to a large block-paved driveway providing ample off-road parking, complemented by a detached stone outbuilding for useful storage.

To the rear, the gardens open into a delightful paddock and feature a range of attractive outdoor living spaces. These include a patio with built-in wood-burning stove for cooking and heating, and a seating area with established grapevine growing across a wooden pagoda – a perfect setting for alfresco dining or relaxing in the sunshine.
