Property description

SWIMMING POOL & OUTBUILDINGS
Immediately to the rear of the property, in a converted period barn, is an indoor swimming pool which looks onto the inner mainly walled courtyard and has access into a fitness and pump room which features a separate sauna. There are further renovated former buildings providing garden storage and the property has the benefit of two driveway entrances, the first of which providing access to a formal gravelled forecourt and the second providing access to a principal side courtyard area which leads to open garaging, which sits adjacent to the rear entrance door to the property.
DETACHED RESIDENTIAL BARN CONVERSION / ANNEXE
Set to the rear of the main courtyard is a more recently fully renovated single storey range of former agricultural buildings known as The Cottage which have been skilfully and carefully renovated to create a completely separate property fitted and finished to a very high standard, enjoying a lovely westerly aspect over the paddock area and gardens beyond. The Cottage benefits from an independent access and gravelled parking area. Accommodation within The Cottage comprises entrance lobby area with cloakroom, impressive open plan living/dining area, well equipped kitchen with integrated appliances, master bedroom with en suite shower room, and good sized second bedroom plus separate family bathroom and WC. The Cottage would ideally suit a dependant relative and is currently let out as a holiday cottage providing a source of income.
GARDENS & GROUNDS
Charlton Farm sits within approximately 3.44 acres and features formal lawned gardens, beautifully maintained to provide a showpiece to this superb country home. The gardens feature mature borders with glorious open views and there are two private courtyard areas around the property with hard and soft landscaping providing a sitting and eating out area for the summer months. Well screened and approached from the courtyard is the main walled garden area with generous lawns and wide paved terrace which sits adjacent to The Cottage. The gardens continue to the west to a more recently acquired area of paddock where a large pond has been created with careful natural countryside landscaping around to create a tranquil walking and sitting area with glorious open countryside views to the west.
