The Property
An attractive Grade II listed house, arranged over two floors beneath a thatched roof, with a wealth of period features throughout. The ground floor offers two reception rooms, a bright kitchen formerly serving as the Cider Shop, a snug with doors opening onto the garden, together with a utility room with an oil-fired AGA, and shower room. The sitting room centres around an impressive inglenook fireplace with bressummer beam and historic bread oven, while further character features include exposed beams and feature exposed walls throughout the accommodation. On the first floor, the spacious principal bedroom enjoys two arch topped windows overlooking the front of the property and the field to the south. Bedroom two features a vaulted ceiling with exposed beams and a window to the east overlooking the garden. There are three further bedrooms and a family bathroom completing the first-floor accommodation.

The Outbuildings
The property benefits from a range of outbuildings providing useful storage and ancillary accommodation, with potential for further development subject to the necessary consents. The barn, featuring stone elevations beneath a pantile roof, has been partially converted to provide two self-contained annexes, together with a double-height storage area and additional low-level storeroom. Both annexes offer open-plan living accommodation with kitchenettes, shower rooms and mezzanine bedroom areas. Please note that Annexe Two has an underfloor heating system connected to the wood burner; however, this is not currently in working order.

The Land
The property extends to approximately 6.00 acres and enjoys a diverse range of outdoor spaces, including formal gardens, pastureland, an apple orchard, paddocks, and mature woodland. To the south lies a level field of approximately 2.5 acres, incorporating an established apple orchard that was previously used for cider production. Adjacent to this, to the east, is an attractive area of mature woodland, providing both privacy and natural interest. A further paddock of approximately 1.4 acres includes a field shelter and offers excellent potential for equestrian or smallholding use. Additional areas comprise a former tennis court paddock, together with hardstanding providing convenient access to the stables, barn, and various outbuildings. We understand that the fields and paddocks are designated for agricultural use. The gardens at Rose Farm have been beautifully maintained by the current owners, creating a colourful and established setting throughout the seasons. A variety of fruit trees complement an impressive collection of roses, while mature wisteria elegantly adorns the house, enhancing the property's charm and character.
