Description

Nestled in a truly idyllic and elevated rural setting, Manor Farm enjoys panoramic views across a peaceful valley to the hillside beyond. This exceptionally attractive period home is positioned in the heart of the countryside, offering complete tranquillity and character in abundance. Set back from a quiet country lane, the property is approached via a gated entrance that leads onto a long gravel driveway. A double car barn with an attached workshop/store sits near the entrance, and the drive continues past lawned gardens to a large parking and turning area.

To the front of the house, an enclosed field, planted with native trees and bordered by fencing, offers outstanding open views and practical outdoor space. A generous entertaining terrace provides the ideal spot to sit and soak in the stunning rural outlook.

Inside, the home blends historic charm with thoughtful modern updates. A handsome central portico leads into a welcoming flagstone floored entrance hall with exposed ceiling beams and a line of sight through to the rear orangery and garden. Just off the hallway is a cloakroom with shower and a cupboard housing the Grant oil-fired central heating boiler.
The spacious kitchen/breakfast room, painted in muted natural tones, features a large central island, quartz worktops, and an electric five door Aga with warming plate and side oven. It opens into a relaxed snug with a wood-burning stove and exposed chimney breast with a traditional bread oven. Behind the kitchen, a well-appointed utility room provides extra storage and space for laundry appliances, as well as an integrated eye-level Neff microwave.

Across the hallway, the elegant sitting room enjoys triple aspect windows and an inglenook fireplace with a second wood-burning stove. A separate study connects to a versatile playroom/cinema/bar with a door to the garden, making it ideal for family life or entertaining.

Upstairs, two staircases offer flexibility and privacy between guest and family accommodation. The impressive principal bedroom overlooks the garden and countryside and includes a walk-through fitted dressing area and a luxurious en suite bathroom with freestanding copper bath and walk-in shower. There are four further bedrooms, including a guest suite with en suite shower room, a family bathroom, and an additional stylish shower room.
