A handsome detached Grade II listed property set in a large well-tended garden
Cellar Hill Farmhouse is a charming detached, brick-built, double-fronted period residence with traditional sash windows and timber beams. The house is Grade II listed and believed to date from the early to mid-17th century. It offers an array of characterful and adaptable accommodation over three light-filled and spacious floors and enjoys convenient transport links and local amenities.
The central entranceway branches out onto the fine sitting room with its cosy brick-built fireplace and log-burning stove. Bespoke cabinetry and shelving sit within the alcove and alongside the turned stairway to the first floor. From here the cool cellar below is also accessed.
The sitting room is filled with natural light from the adjoining fine Victorian-style conservatory, enjoying tranquil views and access to the terrace and gardens. The formal front-facing dining room provides an ideal entertaining space, also with a feature fireplace and built-in cabinetry. The 23 ft in-keeping kitchen, with its partially vaulted ceiling, features a range of neutral Shaker-style base cabinetry, with a large butler sink and red AGA range cooker. Alongside is a utility space and cloakroom.
The first floor houses a tasteful family bathroom and two well-proportioned and bright bedrooms with a variety of character features. The principal suite enjoys the use of an en suite shower room. On the second floor are two further well-sized and peaceful bedrooms.
This property has 0.8 acres of land.
Outside
The property has a charming picket fence beside its handsome façade, along with neat borders and hedgerows. A wrought-iron electric gate opens to the gravelled driveway which leads up the side of the home to the brick-built double garage.
Sitting in the corner of its generous plot, the property enjoys considerable expanses of manicured level lawn interspersed and surrounded by mature trees and dotted with vibrant planting. A paved sun terrace offers the ideal spot for al fresco dining, whilst the versatile brick-built outbuilding serves as an excellent home office space.
