Description
Poole House Farm is a handsome 19th century farmhouse with Georgian style façade built of Flemish bond brickwork beneath a slate roof. In architectural terms the property has much to commend it with its symmetrical façade, deep sash windows and central fanlight above the front door. Internally Poole House Farm presents extremely well having recently undergone a comprehensive scheme of modernisation and improvement.The work has been sympathetically completed retaining the original wood block floors, high ceilings with moulded ceiling cornices, dado rails and windows but incorporating new Victorian style radiators, under floor heating and modern lighting.

To either side of the reception hall and overlooking the front gardens are the drawing room and study with feature fireplaces, decorative ceiling cornices and window shutters. Beyond the front reception rooms is a beautifully fitted open plan kitchen which is the focal point of the house connecting to the dining area, off which is the conservatory. The bespoke handmade kitchen which is designed in the French style comprises elegant wall and base units together with a central island unit under granite work surfaces. The kitchen contains twin Belfast sinks and an electric Aga beneath an ornate overmantel together with a range of integrated Smeg appliances including an electric oven and hob, double fridge and freezer and dishwasher.
