fabulous country walks on the doorstep.
The ground floor flows wonderfully with the hallway leading to the main
reception rooms. The kitchen is clearly the heart of the house and a great
room in which to cook up a feast on the Godin range oven. The kitchen island
is ideal for everyday dining and morning chats over coffee and there is plenty
of discreet storage and work stop space. The dining room comes into its own
for more formal occasions and when hosting larger gatherings. It is a lovely
room in which to entertain with plenty of natural light. The sitting room is
ideal for cosy evenings and relaxing moments in front of the wood burner. The
drawing room is the largest reception room in the house and is both bright and
light and superbly proportioned with an open fireplace. The study works very
well as a home office and makes working from home feasible. The utility room,
off the rear entrance and boot room, comes in handy for keeping the laundry
out of sight! The cellar is currently used for wine storage and there is
potential for conversion subject to obtaining the necessary consents.
The first floor, accessed via front and rear staircases, comprises the master
bedroom with en suite shower room. The exposed beams and the vaulted ceiling
give this room exceptional charm and a great feeling of space. There are four
further bedrooms along the landing and a family bathroom. There is a sixth
bedroom on the second floor.
Outside the terrace is ideal for al fresco dining and summer entertaining and
overlooks the enclosed garden which is predominantly laid to lawn, surrounded
by herbaceous borders. A garden gate leads through to the paddock. The
driveway provides ample parking.
Vendors' thoughts: "Beacon Farm has been our family home for over 15 years,
and is one of the iconic Listed properties in the area. We raised 3 children
from babies to young adults, running around the place, up and down the 3
staircases (I could never catch them!), playing in the garden and the paddock.
Just wonderful memories. The refurbishment was a pleasure to undertake: A
kitchen floor reclaimed from the V&A Museum in London, a handmade kitchen
designed by my wife, roaring fires in the winter, and always a warm feeling
for visiting friends and family. We will all miss it dearly. "
In a nutshell: An impressive and beautiful country home with superb living
space and gorgeous gardens.
