ABOUT THIS HOUSE
Grange Farm features a stone-covered entrance porch leading into a main hallway with flagstone flooring. To the right is a drawing room with an open fireplace and dual aspect windows. The dining room, to the left, has original stone flooring and an Inglenook fireplace with a wood-burning stove, perfect for formal dining. Opposite is a cloakroom utility area, followed by a kitchen with exposed beams, an Aga, and a central island. The breakfast room, with access to a small cellar and double doors to the side garden, completes the ground floor.
On the first floor, the principal bedroom boasts a feature window seat and a south-facing view, connected to a Jack & Jill bathroom. Additional bedrooms include a double with a feature fireplace and a generous room overlooking the gardens to the rear. There’s also a family bath and shower room, along with a bedroom/office with exposed beams and vaulted ceilings. The second floor features a study area, two double bedrooms with dormer windows, and a central bathroom serving both rooms.
Grange Farm is accessed via a gravel driveway leading to a central lawn circle with well-maintained borders. To the left is a south-facing courtyard and dairy featuring original cobbled floors, an inglenook fireplace, and a wash house basin, currently used as a private games room. A large workshop, once a brewery, lies to the right, with separate stairs leading to spacious lofts that could be converted (subject to planning permission) but offer useful storage. Adjacent to the house is a stable/garage with additional storage, surrounded by roses in summer.
To the left of the driveway, a well-kept paddock with a mature walnut tree is bordered by stone walls. Behind it is a croquet lawn, log store, stone outbuilding, and a side garden with mature trees. At the rear, a vegetable garden, lawn, fruit trees, and a 14th-century dovecote surrounded by topiary and roses complete the property, with a wild meadow paddock and chicken house beyond.
