Property description

Glorious rural character and charm - in conjunction with practical equestrian facilities. This fine period house, believed to date from the 1500s and originally a medieval Hall House, offers well proportioned accommodation on two floors with an adaptability to the configuration which will appeal to purchasers keen to personalise their new home to individual taste: three staircases and a highly unusual \"T\" shaped layout, with a total of four bathrooms, offer the possibility for relative/annexe accommodation opportunities. Weaving split level characteristics of the house combine pleasantly in many instances with unusually high ceilings for a property with this history. Many traditional features are still in evidence - heavy hardwood stable doors, exposed ceiling beams, and twin inglenook fireplaces at the foot of the central chimney stack - the heart of the home. Of particular note is the Kitchen/Breakfast Room, a spacious area and focal point for family life, fitted with bespoke oak units and featuring an Aga cooker in a further chimney breast. The countryside setting of Rookery Farm complements its surrounding land: formal areas of lawns and terraces interspersed with flowerbeds and focussing on an ancient duck pond offset to one side. Equestrian facilities include a yard and stable block with tackroom and paddock to the rear. (The stables and paddock can be accessed via a separate driveway). In all the gardens and grounds extend to approximately 3.5 ACRES. A recently installed air source heat pump combines with solar panels fitted to the stable roof to keep economical control over heating costs.
