Annexe secondary accommodation
Penwick Furlong is a charming family home, Georgian with later additions. The accommodation is as shown in the enclosed floor plans. On the ground floor the double height reception hall leads to the study (both with parquet flooring but currently carpeted) and conservatory beyond, also leading through the cosy snug into a good sized, south facing sitting room with two delightful bays giving access to the terrace, rear gardens and wonderful views via French windows. The sitting room also benefits from a large open convection fireplace.
The large L-shaped kitchen/breakfast/family room completes the ground floor with Aga and log burner and access to the side entrance and utility room.
To the first floor there is a principal bedroom with en-suite, 4 further bedrooms and a family bathroom.
Across the driveway is the contemporary, converted coach house with open plan
living, including a shower room on the ground floor and a double bedroom on
the first floor. This area is ideal for guests or could easily be used for air bnb for
additional income.
The property benefits from a 10kW ground mounted solar array, discretely
located out of sight in the field and which currently generate a tax free income of
circa £6,000 per year, as well as providing free electricity, greatly reducing the
electricity usage for the house with surplus energy available for car charging or
battery, if required.
Outbuildings
Beyond the house is ample private parking with a large, oak framed double garage
and equipment store to the side and a great functioning home office over. There
are 3 stables plus a tack room situated between the formal gardens and paddock
of approximately 2.6 acres.
Gardens and Grounds
Approached from the highway through electric gates a driveway leads between
the house and annexe and down to the garages and parking beyond.
The gardens to the rear are mainly lawned with apple, pear and damson trees, beyond the gardens are the stables and solar panels leading to the paddocks. In all
the gardens and grounds extend to around 3.25 acres.

cross section of attractive properties. There is an outstanding locally-owned
public house, The Five Elms, run by a 'Masterchef the Professionals' semi-finalist
and a Methodist Chapel. Weedon has a thriving and friendly village community.
