Common Farmhouse has been sympathetically restored and thoughtfully modernised to create a beautifully balanced home that combines period charm with everyday practicality. Every room has been refreshed with care, showcasing fine craftsmanship and an evident attention to detail throughout.
The front door opens directly into the HALLWAY where original flagstone flooring sets an immediate tone of character and quality. From here, the SITTING ROOM lies to the right, a beautifully proportioned space centred around a handsome stone fireplace with hearth which provides the perfect spot to enjoy during the cooler months. Dual aspect mullioned windows allow natural light to flood the room, creating a bright and welcoming atmosphere.
The DINING ROOM provides an ideal setting for family gatherings and entertaining, with ample room for a sizeable table and chairs. Built in shelving adds flexibility, offering space for books and treasured items while creating a cosy corner for reading or quiet relaxation.
The KITCHEN forms the heart of the home and has been designed with both style and practicality in mind. Fitted wall and floor mounted units provide generous storage, complemented by work surfaces with an inset one and a half bowl stainless steel sink and mixer tap. A central wooden island with granite inset offers additional preparation space and further enhances the room’s charm and functionality. Integrated appliances include a Leisure Cuisine Master ™ electric range cooker with sleek extractor hood above, and there is space and plumbing for a washing machine.
A doorway leads to the pantry and adjoining UTILITY ROOM which provides further storage together with space for an under-counter fridge and separate freezer. This area creates excellent additional workspace and keeps the main kitchen free flowing and uncluttered. A door from here opens directly to the rear garden, ideal for those who enjoy the convenience of a kitchen garden close by.
At the rear of the ground floor, the GARDEN ROOM offers a peaceful and versatile space perfectly suited to hobbies or simply as a quiet retreat overlooking the garden. From here, a door connects to the SHOWER ROOM which features a modern suite including a shower enclosure, wash-hand basin set within a vanity unit and W.C.
The original staircase rises from the entrance hall to the landing with useful storage and access to the principal bedroom, bedroom four and the family bathroom. A second staircase, accessed from the kitchen, leads to bedrooms two and three. The PRINCIPAL BEDROOM enjoys views over the rear garden and has listed planning consent for a Jack and Jill shower room which would make a practical and appealing addition. BEDROOM TWO is a generous double, while BEDROOM THREE also offers comfortable proportions and a pleasant outlook. BEDROOM FOUR is currently arranged as a single bedroom or study, providing flexibility to suit individual needs.
The family BATHROOM completes the first floor with a white suite including a panelled bath, wash-hand basin with vanity unit and a W.C. Every aspect of Common Farmhouse reflects thoughtful attention to detail and a genuine appreciation of its heritage. The result is a beautifully finished home that feels timeless, comfortable and ready to enjoy.
Outside The principal façade of Common Farmhouse is fronted by a charming, narrow garden planted with ornamental shrubs and enclosed by a traditional iron gate and fence, creating a welcoming first impression. To the side of the property there is an area providing convenient off-road parking. From the utility room, a small shingle pathway adorned with potted plants adds a splash of colour and leads through to the rear garden. This level, south-facing garden enjoys a good degree of privacy, with mature boundaries and a delightful paved seating area complete with arbour provides an ideal spot to sit back and appreciate the peaceful surroundings. Generous in size, the garden provides ample space for children and pets to play and for outdoor gatherings with family and friends.
