Flaxhide was sympathetically converted in 1990 and still retains much of its original charm, with features such as exposed beams, trusses, and traditional flagstone flooring. Offering versatile accommodation, the property is ideally suited to family living.

The house is entered via a welcoming reception hall with stairs rising to the first floor and doors opening to the main reception rooms. These include a striking drawing room with a magnificent inglenook fireplace housing a log burner, as well as a spacious dual-aspect sitting/dining room.

The kitchen/breakfast room is well designed for family use, fitted with a range of hand-crafted base and wall units topped with granite work surfaces. Integrated appliances include an aga, a conventional oven, a combination microwave oven, a five-ring hob, fridge freezer, and dishwasher. From here, a door leads through to a useful utility room.

A charming family room with a vaulted ceiling sits alongside a double bedroom and bathroom, creating an excellent guest suite. This area could also offer potential as a self-contained annexe for income generation.

Upstairs, a galleried landing filled with natural light leads to the impressive principal bedroom suite, complete with dressing room and en suite bathroom. There are three further generously proportioned bedrooms on this floor, served by two additional bathrooms, one en suite.

Externally

The property is approached via a sweeping 'in and out' driveway providing ample parking and access to a double garage with storage above. At the rear, a beautiful east-facing garden features a large paved terrace, perfect for entertaining, which overlooks a raised lawn bordered by mature planting and specimen trees.

Beyond the formal garden lies an adjoining paddock of approximately 2.6 acres, enclosed by post-and-rail fencing and established hedging. The paddock enjoys far-reaching views and includes a substantial oak-framed outbuilding with a four-bay frontage and an enclosed storage area. To the rear of the last paddock is gated access to the road
