Description

A truly impressive Grade II listed country house, Tibenham Farm is set within seven acres (STMS) of picturesque grounds. As you approach the property through the long driveway and electric gates, you are greeted by the grandeur of the house standing proudly within its partially moated grounds. The interior seamlessly combines period details with modern finishes, offering a truly unique living experience.

You are welcomed into the property by four impressive reception rooms, each exuding character and featuring high ceilings, exposed timbers, and beautiful fireplaces. From the elegant drawing room and atmospheric dining room to the cosy library and inviting family room, every space oozes charm. The kitchen breakfast room, with its vaulted ceiling and modern finishes, provides a delightful area for both entertaining and casual gatherings.

The first floor is home to four superb bedrooms, of which three are en-suite. The dual-aspect principal bedroom boasts stunning views over the grounds and features the luxury of an exclusive Phillipe Starck en-suite, plus a charming dressing room to complete. The guest room is also a very generous size with lovely views and full of character, as well as the two further bedrooms and family bathroom. Further to the main area of the first floor, a mezzanine floor overlooking the kitchen offers another cosy living space, ideal for the younger members of the family to have their own space, while others entertain and socialise in the kitchen dining area.

Above the kitchen and mezzanine on the second floor, currently used as an office, was once a self-contained apartment with a kitchenette, bedroom, and bathroom. With all the facilities still available, this could easily create the ideal space for a family member looking for a little independence or even an Au pair.

Outside, the property impresses with its expansive grounds featuring a long driveway, ample parking, a partially moated front, and a charming walled garden with a sweeping lawn, raised entertaining deck, and meandering gravel pathway. The established woodland and meadow add to the property’s allure, creating an idyllic country living haven.

Tibenham Farm also boasts a variety of outbuildings, including a large timber frame barn, a general-purpose store with a secure workshop, stabling, wood store, and a separate outbuilding currently used as a gym. All these facilities create a variety of opportunities and a wonderful place to call home.
