An exceptionally rare opportunity to acquire a distinguished Grade II listed residence where historic architecture and sophisticated interior design are brought together with exceptional precision. Set within an idyllic private landscape, Lower Farm has been the subject of an extensive, design-led refurbishment, elevating every space with craftsmanship, texture and contemporary elegance.

At the heart of the home lies the kitchen and dining area, a masterclass in modern country design. Featuring bespoke cabinetry, tailored lighting schemes, underfloor heating and a beautifully crafted central island, the space balances luxury with functionality. Full-height doors open to the terrace, inviting natural light that plays across the carefully selected textures and surfaces.

Adjoining the suite is a private study, fitted with custom cabinetry designed to complement the wider interior aesthetic. Two additional double bedrooms, one with an en-suite and dressing area share the floor, each finished with distinctive design details and a family bathroom crafted with premium materials.

The second floor hosts a spacious double bedroom bathed in natural light, with elevated views over the gardens, accompanied by its own dressing room and bathroom, all finished to the same impeccable standard.

Encircling trees provide both beauty and privacy.

The separate cottage presents a design-led open-plan reception and kitchen/dining room, with a tranquil double bedroom and en-suite shower room. The pool house mirrors this sophisticated approach, offering an open-plan living/kitchen space, bedroom and bathroom, ideal for guests and designed to echo the main residence’s refined aesthetic.
