Description
Church Farm is a most impressive detached character property situated in a
delightful rural location affording wonderful far reaching views across
surrounding open countryside. The property has recently undergone an extensive
scheme of refurbishment and renovation by the current owners to create an
exceptional family home. It is evident that little expense has been spared
with acute attention to detail being paid to all aspects with high quality
fittings throughout including solid oak double glazed windows, solid oak
flooring, luxury fitted bathrooms and a bespoke Neptune kitchen. The
accommodation has been reconfigured to enhance the wealth of character
features including striking vaulted ceilings and extensive exposed timbering.
The accommodation, which extends to approximately 2, 460 sq feet, is arranged
on the ground floor with a reception hall, generously proportioned living room
enjoying a dual aspect, study, contemporary open plan dining kitchen equipped
with integrated appliances and French doors opening to both the front and
rear, utility room providing additional useful storage and a cloakroom. An
inner hall leads to three double bedrooms, all with en suite bath/shower
rooms. On the first floor there is a master suite with a walk in dressing room
and a spacious en suite shower room.
One of the great strengths of Church Farm is its setting, surrounded by open
countryside and enjoying fine views toward the Malvern Hills. The property is
approached by a long gravelled driveway providing ample off road parking and
in turn leads to a four bay carport. There are further outbuildings including
a dutch barn and an open barn, both offering considerable potential (subject
to the necessary consents being sought). The grounds belonging to Church Farm
extend to approximately 7 acres and include an attractive formal garden mainly
laid to lawn with colourful plant borders and raised beds. There are adjoining
