Property description
A distinguished period farmhouse with equestrian facilities, outbuildings, and over six acres in a picturesque village setting.
Church Farmhouse is a substantial detached residence, set within grounds of over six acres. With elegant reception rooms, four double bedrooms, stables, hay barn, menage, and the rare benefit of a former caravan site with its own access and hook-up facilities, this home combines lifestyle and opportunity in equal measure. Modern upgrades, including a contemporary open plan kitchen and solar panels, complement the property’s traditional character, creating an exceptional home in an idyllic setting.
Step Inside
The layout is both generous and versatile. At its heart lies the open plan kitchen and breakfast room — the true hub of daily life. The recently refitted contemporary kitchen is designed with both style and function in mind, offering a full range of sleek cabinetry, integrated appliances, and a central island that doubles as a breakfast table. The open layout makes it a space where cooking, dining, and family time flow together naturally, while large skylights and a vaulted ceiling in the adjoining breakfast area fill the room with light. Exposed timber beams add a touch of character, and the built-in banquette seating creates a welcoming spot for informal meals or relaxed conversation.
The reception rooms are equally impressive. The principal sitting room is exceptionally large, a true centrepiece of the home, with triple-aspect views across the gardens and a wealth of traditional features that add both charm and character. A second lounge enjoys sliding doors and a substantial brick fireplace, while the formal dining room is ideal for entertaining. A dedicated study and two additional flexible ground-floor rooms (with separate access) offer scope for hobbies, home business, or ancillary use. Two cloakrooms/WCs complete the ground floor.
Upstairs, four double bedrooms provide well-proportioned accommodation. The dual-aspect principal suite boasts a walk-in wardrobe and en suite, while a further bedroom also benefits from its own en suite and dressing area. The remaining bedrooms share a stylish family bathroom, ensuring comfort for family and guests.
Step Outside
Approached via a private single-track lane, the farmhouse enjoys a tranquil setting, backing onto open countryside. Electric gates open to a wide gravel driveway, leading to a triple garage, stabling, and outbuildings.
The grounds extend to over six acres, with a mix of lawns, paddocks, and meadowland. For equestrian use, the facilities are particularly impressive: a hay barn, four spacious stables with power, a turnout area, and a securely fenced all-weather menage provide everything required for keeping and looking after horses. The barns and stables also benefit from solar panels, adding practical efficiency to the set-up.
Adding to the versatility is a separate area of the land, once used as a small caravan site, with its own access, electric hook-ups, and facilities still in place — ideal for those seeking potential income, guest accommodation, or further lifestyle use.
Mature trees, hedgerows, and open views frame the gardens, while further storage and an open-sided barn complete the outside amenities.
