The accommodation is well appointed and highly versatile, arranged over two spacious floors. A central panelled hallway leads to a fitted boot/cloaks room and three generous reception rooms. The double-length drawing room with a bay window and the triple-aspect dining room each feature traditional fireplaces with wood-burning stoves, while the cosy sitting room is warmed by a gas fire.
At the heart of the home is the 24-foot open-plan kitchen/breakfast room - an exceptional family living space with ample room for a large dining table and armchair. It includes an island with granite worktop, integrated appliances and an oil-fired Aga, with a utility room conveniently located alongside. A glazed door opens from the kitchen to a bespoke hardwood conservatory with underfloor heating which also serves as a useful rear entrance at the west of the property.
On the first floor the central panelled landing gives access to five double bedrooms and a stunning house bathroom with wall panelling, a picture window, freestanding claw-foot bath, walk-in shower and underfloor heating. The principal bedroom suite enjoys far-reaching views east across the paddock to open countryside beyond, and has an arched doorway that opens to an en suite shower room with a large walk-in shower. A separate dressing room- repurposed from bedroom five - features fitted wardrobes, a dresser, and a walk-in cupboard. Bedroom four is currently used as a study and includes a window seat with views over the garden.
Annexe
The detached annexe, formerly a brick and pantile stable block with chimney, has been thoughtfully converted into a versatile space extending to nearly 730 sq ft. It is filled with natural light from double-glazed windows on two sides and finished with recessed downlights and fitted radiators (not yet connected to a boiler). It currently serves as a home office and gym with the two rooms served by a kitchenette and bathroom. With minimal work, the annexe could be reconfigured into a fully self-contained cottage, offering excellent potential for guest accommodation or to generate additional income.
Outside
A five-bar timber gate opens to a gravelled drive on the western boundary that passes the house and garage and leads to a generous parking area. The detached garage – converted from a brick and pantile milking parlour – has timber doors alongside an area of hardstanding. It includes a workshop area with work bench, an inspection pit and Velux window, and is served with power and light.
Beyond the gravelled parking area lies the former fold yard, now housing a 23m x 16m manège laid with silica sand. It is flanked on one side by an open brick and pantile four-bay barn and on the other by the annexe, formerly the stables. Nearby is the modern Goodrick stable block with tack and feed areas along with a tractor shed and store, all served by power, light and water. A five-bar gate opens into the well-drained, flat, grass paddock which forms the eastern boundary of the property. Bounded by post and rail fencing, it extends to 2.1 acres and benefits from gated access both from the roadside and via a secondary drive, flanked by lime trees and giving access to the outbuildings. The front garden, previously used as a holding paddock, adds further versatility.
The gardens and grounds extend to around 1.2 acres, wrapping around the house on all sides to create a wonderfully private setting. A high evergreen laurel hedge defines the northern boundary, while a tall Leylandii hedge encloses the south. To the front, a deep and broad garden provides further privacy.
To the rear, a stone terrace provides a charming spot for outdoor seating, with stone steps rising to a generous lawn flanked by richly planted borders of colourful shrubs and perennials. A stepping-stone path winds across the lawn to a summer house. Alongside the eastern drive lies a productive kitchen garden, securely fenced on all sides. A pergola forms a natural division between the herb garden and a series of nine raised vegetable beds.
