Overview

Perkins Farm is a quintessential period property, showcasing traditional pink-washed elevations beneath a striking recently re-ridged thatched roof. Having been sympathetically extended, and now with full planning permission to create additional holiday lets and convert the barn, the property already offers more than 4,200 sq ft of versatile accommodation across the main house and its extensive outbuildings, while sensitively preserving its heritage through exposed timber beams, original floorboards and impressive brick inglenook fireplaces. The ground floor provides an excellent balance of reception and living space. The charming kitchen featuring exposed timbers, a central island and range cooker is complemented by a separate pantry and utility room. The dining room and principal reception room each feature handsome fireplaces, while the light-filled sun room enjoys a seamless connection to the garden and terrace.

A flexible ground-floor bedroom with en suite facilities offers excellent versatility for guests or multigenerational living. On the first floor, there is a spacious principal bedroom with an en suite bathroom, an additional double bedroom and a shower room featuring a fireplace. Two further generous bedrooms are located on the second floor, tucked beneath the characterful eaves, one of which being accessed via a drop-down staircase.
