Picturesque Grade II listed village home with beautiful proportions, a delightful garden and annexe.

Description
Priory Farmhouse represents a wonderful period home dating from circa 1800 and occupies a sought after position within the heart of the village with its thriving community and backdrop of stunning countryside.

The property has been refurbished and extended by the current owners whilst retaining the original character and is complimented by exceptional presentation throughout. Accommodation within the main house extends to approximately 5,200 sq ft and is set over four floors.

From the main hall are three well proportioned reception rooms comprising drawing room, dining room and sitting room. All rooms are wonderfully light and enjoy a pleasant aspect. The exceptional kitchen is a later addition and is a spectacular space that is very much the heart of the home with its memorable vaulted ceiling, exposed beams, skylights and a pair of bifold doors. The bespoke kitchen features an aga, central island, original brickwork, superb proportions and fabulous view across the garden. Off the kitchen is a large and practical utility / boot room. A cosy study with an adjoining cloakroom completes the downstairs. On the lower ground floor is a useful basement storage area.

Upstairs, there are four bedrooms, the principal bedroom is generous in size with built-in wardrobes and an en suite bathroom. Additionally, bedroom three has the benefit of an en suite shower room. Across the landing is the family bathroom which serves bedrooms two and four. On the second floor are three further double bedrooms, two of which are adjoining.

The gardens are truly wonderful and deceptively large, set in a plot of approximately 0.8 acre and have been meticulously landscaped with a manicured lawn and pretty flowering beds. Private and tranquil, the garden is well screened by a number of trees offering a feeling of privacy and seclusion. There is a lovely patio, easily accessed from the kitchen, offering an ideal space to entertain and enjoy the spring and summer months.

A notable feature of the property is The Barn, a charming timber framed annexe. This converted accommodation comprises open plan kitchen / reception room with a log burner, double bedroom and upstairs is a useful home office / study. The annexe provides delightful lodgings for guests and visitors.

There is an open bay carport and additional driveway parking. There are a number of outbuildings and sheds in the garden.
