Charming Historic Stone Farmhouse with Land, Barns & Original Features

Steeped in history and rich in character, this exceptional stone farmhouse is said to date from the early 16th century although significant extensions were done in the 17th century. One of the oldest properties in the hamlet, it retains a wealth of authentic features and is set in its own meadows and woodland.

Upon entering, you are welcomed by a spacious, south-facing entrance hall with storage and a staircase leading to the upper floors. To the left, the first living room offers a warm and inviting atmosphere, complete with an original stone fireplace, Godin log burner, exposed beams, and traditional tiled flooring. There is also a small wine cellar beneath the floor.

Moving through the home, the galley-style kitchen enjoys dual-aspect views over both gardens and is fitted with wooden cabinetry, tiled floors, exposed beams and stonework.

At the rear lies the second living room - arguably the heart of the home - featuring remarkable period elements including a stone hearth with original bread oven, a stone sink (now simply a decorative feature), ancient beams, candle niches, and exposed stone walls. There is a second under-floor cellar and a large wood-burning stove. This room opens onto private gardens on two sides and leads into a large, airy conservatory room with a summer kitchen (with space for white goods which may be included in the sale by negotiation), terrace access, and a charming rose and hibiscus garden. French doors and sliding windows open onto the south facing garden. A boiler and storage room is also accessed from here.

Upstairs, a generous landing with polished chestnut flooring, offers stunning views across the top meadow and leads to the spacious master bedroom. This is located at the front of the house and benefits from dual-aspect views, an original brick fireplace with lined chimney, exposed beams, and polished wooden floors.

The shower room features a spacious walk-in shower, heated towel rail, toilet and sink.
At the rear of the property, accessed via a short corridor, are two further doublebedrooms, a bathroom, a storage room, and a bright open space ideal for use as an office or snug. The bathroom includes a full-size bath, toilet, and sink, with pleasant views over the side garden.

Bedroom 4, a single room with a sloped ceiling, could also serve as a private office. Additional flexible spaces throughout the house offer further potential for work or hobby areas.
