Lydes farm is a charming detached farmhouse; much loved, cared for and improved by the current owners over the past forty years or so of their ownership.
A quiet no-through lane leads to the gated tree-lined drive, with vehicular access to the farmhouse into a wide turning circle with a double garage and further covered car-ports.
Surrounded by its own park like gardens and grounds, carefully curated and cultivated by the current owners it offers a high degree of peace and quiet, privacy and beauty.
On entering there is plenty of natural light, and the house has been sympathetically and tastefully decorated throughout, with a relaxed country charm ideal for families of all ages and size.
Arranged over two floors, it offers almost 4000 sq. ft of internal accommodation.
Across the ground floor there is a welcoming entrance hall, with immediate access to the left to a cloakroom, utility room and plant room, also providing direct access to the integrated double garage.
To the south side of the house, catching much of the day's sun, is a stunning 30' sitting room, with a carved stone fire surround and exposed brick hearth, dual aspect flooding the room with natural light and twin pairs of French doors leading out into the enclosed dining terrace.
Accessed from the other side of the entrance hall are a suite of further reception rooms presenting a huge degree of versatility with a formal dining room with an open fireplace, snug / family room with a wood burning stove and a separate study study (or useful sixth bedroom).
In addition, there is a charming family kitchen with an AGA, leading into a light-filled breakfast room with access out to the garden.
Upstairs lie five superb double bedrooms, with a sumptuous master bedroom suite with a walk-in dressing room and en-suite bath / shower room. There is also an en-suite bathroom to bedroom two with the remaining three bedrooms sharing a well-appointed family bathroom.
Outside:
The gardens and grounds at Lydes farm are exquisite; with some 2.75 acres of landscaped park-like setting to enjoy, relax and entertain in.
The options are limitless; camping weekends with children and friends; bonfires, al-fresco dining and just the ability watch the seasons come and go with hundreds of mature trees dotted throughout.
Immediately to the south of the house is a “Mediterranean” style dining terrace, complete with mature olive tree and directly accessed from the sitting room; whilst wrapping around to the south west of the house is a further paved terrace to sit back and relax on.Accessed from the drive is a covered car / tractor port for several vehicles, along with an integrated double garage with direct access to he main house. Above lies a useful circa 25' home office or studio which itself leads to an additional amount of loft storage above the garage.
Right of Way: A bridle path runs along the southern boundary behind a belt of woodland. There is vehicular right of way across the very start of the drive for the neighbouring properties.
